Let’s Build an Application from Scratch - Part 4

Jim Pilcher and Patrick Headley

This presentation has just been so darn popular that we're doing it again!

This month, Jim Pilcher and Patrick Headley will continue with the development of the DAAUG DVD/Movie database. Now that the table design is complete, we will look at setting a few validation rules and default values for various fields and discuss the relative merits of incorporating lookups directly into Access tables. Time-permitting, we will also begin looking at Access forms. Bring a USB flash drive if you want a copy of the database as it exists at the end of the presentation.
