Database Project Blog

Hello Bloggers!  Kevin here to talk to you about our most recent project, the database project.  This project was very interesting and quite challenging at times.  I enjoyed getting to learn how to use Microsoft Access and its infinite capabilities.  I know we only scratched the surface with the different techniques we learned with Access.  But, I feel that just with these techniques so much data can be organized in real world situations.  These are skills businesses look for everyday in future employees.  I hope to be able to widen my knowledge with Access and databases to enrich my business career.

I did find it kind of annoying that you had to set up the forms and the reports by yourself.  It would be nice if there were some automatic formatting for the length of text you were using.  I feel that would have saved myself a ton of time.  I'd say it would really help if it was more like a spreadsheet model on excel where you can double click the boarded between cells and it would automatically widen the cell to fit the desired text.  As far as that I experienced no other hiccups or hitches using Access that I didn't like.
