  1. Database Design Week 10

  2. Table Instance Charts

  3. Create Tables • For the tables for the sample in the Wk10_TableInstanceChart.xlsx

  4. Types of Data

  5. Common Data Types in Access • Autonumber • Text • Memo • Number • Currency • Date/Time • Yes/No

  6. Autonumber • Use for unique sequentialnumbering • Commonly used for PK (Primary Key) • Increments by 1 • Automatically inserted when a recordisadded.

  7. Text • Used for text or combinations of text and numbers, such as addresses, or for numbers that do not require calculations, such as phone numbers, part numbers, or postal codes. • Stores up to 255 characters.

  8. Memo • Use for lengthy text and numbers, such as notes or descriptions. • Should be used “sparingly”, because it takes up too much room in database • Stores up to 65,536characters (if not more)

  9. Number • Use for data to be included in mathematical calculations, except calculations involving money (use “Currency”type). • When you are creating a RELATIONSHIP with an “AUTOnumber” field with the “PARENT” table

  10. Yes/No • Use for data that can be only 1of 2 possible values, such as • Yes/No, • True/False, • On/Off. • Nullvalues are NOTallowed

  11. Rule • One chart completed for each table • Wk10_TableInstanceChart.xlsx

  12. Review Relationship Essentials • Need a primary key • EVERY TABLE NEEDS A PRIMARY KEY • Should be 1stfield • Need a foreign key • a Foreign Key is a column in a table used to reference a Primary Key in anothertable. • A table does NOT necessarily have to have a Foreign Key • Whenever you see: “MANY”—this will be the Foreign Key • Primary key and foreign keys are essential when you create relationships that join together multiple tables in a database

  13. Build Time • For each of the following scenarios: • Create and write out a business narrative • Create list of ENTITIES/tables • Create the attributes for the table • Create the ERD and the relationship rules • Create a table instance chart

  14. HUMAN RESOURCES 2

  15. HUMAN RESOURCES 3

  16. Create Tables in ms access

  17. Table Design View • Exercise: • Create table for gender

  18. Datasheet View • Exercise: • Add data to the gender table

  19. Table Design View • Exercise: • Create Ribbon > Table Design in the Tables grouping • Identify your own PK • Moving the order of the rows

  20. Create Table with Lookups • Exercise: • Add data to the city entity using a look up wizard as the data type for the province

  21. Add Data to an Entity • Based on another entity • Exercise: • Create the students table (studentID, fname, lname and gender fields only)

  22. Edit an Entity • Exercise: • Complete the Students table • Go back and look at your default value (note it was not added to previous records entered)

  23. Edit Data in Datasheet View • Exercise: • Go back and add the age group and city for each of the students previously entered • Datasheet view • Record count • Add a new record • Search for a record • Sort the records

  24. COMPACTING & REPAIRING A DATABASE • DATABASE TOOLS> COMPACT & REPAIR button • •As you add, edit, & delete objects, a database changes in size • •To minimize the size of a database & improve performance should be done on a regular basis • •Rearranges how a fragmented database is stored on disk

  25. Want More Information • Visit the following site. http://www.functionx.com/access/index.htm

  26. Queries

  27. QUERIES: DEFINITION Is a QUESTIONto the database-asking for a “set of records”from 1or more Tables/QueriesMS Access responds by displaying the requested datais a storedquestion, rather than a stored responseresultsautomatically update,IFtable is edited, it allows you to view & operate on “selected subsets” of your data

  28. Northwind Database

  29. Single Table Queries • Select fields to display • Sort by? • Simple Conditions • When you enter text into the criteria cell your text should be enclosed in quotes ("") to distinguish it from other expressions and operators that you may need to add.
