- [Voiceover] Hi, my name is Adam Wilbert. And I'd like to welcome you to Office 365: Access Essential Training. In this course, I'll walk you through the things that you need to know in order to leverage Microsoft's newest version of the relational database program access. We'll start by taking a look at what makes a relational database work. And how moving your information into Access can help make you more efficient with your time and with your data. Then we'll break the database down into it's major components. And look at how each one, contributes to the whole. We'll build tables to store our data and attach rules to help minimize data entry errors, in order to ensure that our data remains consistent and reliable. Next, I'll introduce queries, a powerful way to find filter and sort your data in order to reveal exactly the information you need precisely when you need it. With forms, we'll create the main interface to your database, we'll build custom interactive elements with buttons and combo boxes to help us populate our database with data. And move around to accomplish different tasks efficiently. Finally, reports will help us create a structure for printed documents and allow us to easily share insights about our data. Throughout this course, I'll share tips and tricks to keeping your database secure, backed up, and integrated with the other programs in the office suite. In short, it's time to make your data work for you instead of the other way around. So thank you for joining me in Office 365: Access Essential Training. Now let's get started.
