Course Description

This three-day course takes an in-depth look at three topics: relating tables, creating forms and creating reports.   We'll show you how to determine when you need to use more than one table, and how to relate them, then we’ll look at how to create queries, forms and reports that are based on related tables.  (Form & Report topics: with and without the wizard, using tools, setting formats, setting control properties, sub-forms, grouping reports and more.)
