This was a pretty difficult project. I had a hard time relating the video lesson material to the actual practical application. A lot of it was trial and error, but in the end it did work. I took a Microsoft Office class when I got my AA at FSCJ and the material in that class was pretty straight forward. There was a small section on access, but it was an online class and all of the instructions were printed. I did get more familiar with a lot of the different aspects of access, i.e. reports, queries and forms. So I do feel confident that in the future were I to need to create a database, that I would be able to figure most of it out.
As far as enhancing the functionality of an access database, I think the availability of an access "wizard" would be very helpful. The individual "wizards" helped tremendously, but having one "wizard" that was able to take you from the beginning to the end would be great. There would be no guessing as to what type of information that you needed to create, i.e. report, or form, because the wizard would be able to do that for you.
