How the Parts Fit Together

Even though you create tables, reports, forms, and queries in separate steps, they're all related. As I mentioned earlier, tables are the central focus of all activities—all the other objects do something to or with the table data. Reports summarize and organize the table data; forms help you enter information into the table; queries help you find information you want to use in the table. In future lessons, you'll learn how each part relates to the whole database.
