What are Microsoft Access Tables?
At the heart of Microsoft Access are tables. Like a spreadsheet, they contain columns and rows of data. Though this data is typically very specific. For example, a table of books might include its ISBN ID, its name, its author, its price, the publisher ID, and the date published.
In Access, columns of data are called fields. For each field, you must specify its data type. For example, the title of the book is text, so it needs a Text data type. But its price is a number, so it needs a Numeric data type.
Tables generally have relationships between them. For example, like the book table, you could have a publisher table, which lists information about publishers, such as the publisher ID, its name and its address. By creating a relationship between the book and publisher tables, you can find information about the publisher through the publisher ID in the book table.
