Foil 30 Access Forms and Reports

From Examples of JDBC -- Microsoft Access CPS616 -- Information Track of CPS -- Spring Semester 97. by Sangeeta Aggarwal,Tom Pulikal,Udayan Pravate(Nancy McCracken) *

1 Beyond the tabular vision, for consultation and editing of data, there is a form editor and a form interpreter that allows the generation and management of specific input/output data interfaces (forms).
2 The usage of forms allows the visualization in a single window interface of data belonging to different tables and query results.
3 In Access, program code and a form (or report) is stored in a neat package. Each form and report can carry its own module with it. The event procedures are subroutines and their scope, by default, is private to the form.
4 Reports are information organized and formatted to fit the user's specifications. They provide a way to retrieve and present data as meaningful information. Examples are mailing labels, invoices, sale summaries, phone lists etc.
