Performance-based objectives

  • Normalize sample tables by identifying design problems.
  • Establish relationships between tables by analyzing table relationships and enforcing referential integrity.
  • Customize table designs by setting field properties to maintain data integrity, by creating a lookup list, and by creating indexes.
  • Design select queries by using multiple tables to calculate, group, average, and concatenate values and to show top values.
  • Customize form designs by creating calculated fields, combo boxes, and unbound controls.
  • Publish data to the Web by creating data access pages.
  • Customize report designs by grouping, sorting, and summarizing data, and by adding subreports.

Prerequisites

This course is designed for the student who wishes to learn intermediate-level operations of the Microsoft Access program. The Level 2 course is for the individual whose job responsibilities include creating new databases, tables, and relationships, as well as working with and revising intermediate-level queries, forms, and reports. It also introduces the student to integrating Access data with other applications such as Microsoft Word or Excel. To ensure the successful completion of Microsoft Access 2003: Level 2, we recommend completion of the following courses, or equivalent knowledge (basic familiarity with Access tables, relationships, queries, forms, and reports) from another source: Microsoft Access 2003: Level 1.
