A classification of your record or CD collection. A grading program for CIS 101 including text boxes to contain grades for Visual Basic, Spreadsheet, Essay, Class Work, HTML production, Web Browsing, Midterm, and Final. Your instructor may assign this as a group project. In this lab, you first set up a database using the Visual Basic connection to Access, a database application. A database is one or more tables of data.
Tables hold records and records hold fields.
A record is all the information on a specific person or thing. The fields are the distinct items of information. Many database applications exist and it is possible to use them alone, without something like Visual Basic. These applications have their own facilities for queries, updates and reports. However, it is a nice feature of Visual Basic that it provides a fairly easy way to link to Access.
