CREATING AND MODIFYING TABLES AND OTHER DATABASE OBJECTS

GETTING STARTED

  • Open the file NP_AC19_1b_FirstLastName_1.accdb, available for download from the SAM website.
  • Save the file as NP_AC19_1b_FirstLastName_2.accdb by changing the “1” to a “2”.
    • If you do not see the .accdb file extension in the Save As dialog box, do not type it. The program will add the file extension for you automatically.
  • Open the _GradingInfoTable table and ensure that your first and last name is displayed as the first record in the table. If the table does not contain your name, delete the file and download a new copy from the SAM website.
  • PROJECT STEPS
  1. You are a graduate teaching assistant for Ridgedale College, a private college in the Midwest. To help the college better manage their course scheduling, you have created an Access database and are working on the tables.

    1. Rename the ID field to DeptID and change the data type to Short Text.
    2. Change the field size of the DeptID field to 4.
    3. Add a new field with the name DeptName and the Short Text data type. Save the table and use Departments as the table name.
       
  2. With the Departments table still open in Datasheet View, add the seven records shown in Table 1. Save and close the Departments table.

  3. Open the Professors table in Design View and use ProfFirstName as the new field name for the FirstName field and use ProfLastName as the new field name for the LastName field.
  4. With the Professors table still open in Design View, change the data type property for the ProfEMail field from Short Text to Hyperlink.
  5. With the Professors table still open in Design View, add a new field to the Professors table after the ProfEMail field. The field should be named HireDate and have the Date/Time data type. Save the Professors table but do not close it.
  6. Switch the Professors table to Datasheet View, navigate to the 12th record (which has a ProfID field value of LRG for Lucas Garland), and delete the record.
  7. With the Professors table still open in Datasheet View, navigate to the fifth record (which has a ProfID field value of CJZ for Carla Zimmerman) and edit the value for the Salary field, using 49000 as the new value. Close the Professors table.
