CSCI 100 Homework 7

Before you start working on tutorials, please read the problem descriptions for what you need to print out. If you just follow book, you do not know what to print out.

This assignment will give you an introduction to the database tool known as Microsoft Access.

Using your book for this course, complete all of the following tasks. Note that you do NOT have to do any of the exercises at the end of the chapter unless you are specifically told to do so. Also do not do any of the exercises having to do with speech or the language bar.

  1. Read through and create Tutorial 1, found in the "Access Tutorial 1" section of your book. You should create the Tutorial by following all of the instructions in the tutorial. When you have finished, the Tutorial will be complete and correct. What to print out? (figure 1-14, figure 1-23, Figure 1-24, figure 1-27 (you can print out only the last page for this figure.))
  2. Read through and create Tutorial 2, found in the "Access Tutorial 2" section of your book. You should create the Tutorial by following all of the instructions in the tutorial. When you have finished, the Tutorial will be complete and correct. What to print (figure 2-28 and figure 2-38)

Here is a typical question for which you might need an answer when you work on page 69.

Qestion: When i got to page number 69 figure 2-26 in the second tutorial I wasnt able to do the task.

Answer: Please go to page 69 and follow step 5 and step 6 to find the external data in the Excel file. Where to find the data? The place you had used for any raw data file. Still remember how to copy raw data from the public folder which has an office icon on the desktop. So, just use any lab computer, locate that office files icon, then click it to go to course technology, you won't miss it.
