MULTIPLE-TABLE FORMS

GETTING STARTED

  • Open the file SC_AC19_5b_FirstLastName_1.accdb, available for download from the SAM website.
  • Save the file as SC_AC19_5b_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.

  2. Switch the Customers table to Datasheet View, and then add a new field named CustomerNotes at the end of the table. Use Long Text as the data type for the field. Save the change to the table.
  3. With the Customers table still open in Datasheet View, update the record for customer Martha Bers (who has the CustomerID 10010) by completing the following tasks:
     
    1. Using the input mask, enter 585-555-0111 in the Mobile field.
    2. Enter the text Free tour winner in the CustomerNotes field.

      Close the table.
  4. Open the Tours table in Design View, and then add a new field with the name TourDetails following the DiscountedCost field. Use Attachment as the data type for the field, and use Description as the caption property for the field. Save the change to the table, and then close the table.

    1. Open the Confirmation Update Form in Design View.
    2. Open the field list for the form.
