IST 195- Week 7 Post


Ah yes. This week was databases. And I learned that there is one more application I need to learn. This time? Access.

To be perfectly honest, this past week's lab was the first time I had ever used Access, or even heard of it. I was aware of different OS's like Unix which could be used to access an e-mail server or online server, but never Access.

I was surprised by how fluid it was. As a small business owner, having both Access and Excel would make it incredibly easy to retrieve data from a database and then present it in a usable form. This means I could easily store credit card information, mailing addresses, phones numbers, etc. and be able to pull any of that information up whenever I needed it.
