Chapter 4: MS Access Reports & Forms
Forms are used as the source of data entry into the MS Access tables.
Forms are basically GUI (Graphical Users Interface) using which users
interact with MS Access database.
You can also do the data entry to MS Access table directly by double
clicking the table and adding the records at the end of the table.
Underneath a MS Access form, you may have multiple tables attached.
Using forms, you don’t have to switch between tables during massive data
entry. Moreover, the end users need not to know about SQL and
inter-tables’ relationship to perform the data entry operation.
Step 1: Creating Form Using Form Wizard
Figure 4-19: Form Wizard lies under “More Forms” drop-down menu of
“Create” command ribbon.
________________________________________

hands round the MS Access Forms functionality, try using other ways to
do the forms development.
