Microsoft Access Project

I defantly learned a lot on this project and it did take a lot longer then I thought it would. Using almost all microsoft products before and knowing how to use most of them from powerpoint to excel I did not think that I would have much problems with this project, but to my suprise I had no idea what I was doing. If I had tried to open this up and just work in it on my own I would have failed, I went step by step with the lectures and videos and it helped a lot. Learning how to make your own table was probably the easiest part because it was a lot like excel, but as we progressed into the Query's things started to get harder it was interesting to see how you can group information and make them line up in the order you wish. Then with forms and reports you can make your presentation very understandable to others. Showing each member of the gym and what all their information is.


There is many ways you can enhance this project and only a few of them were even went over in the lectures. You have multiple tools you can use to make this project even more understandable. You can add colors and cool fonts to make it more appealing to the eye. You could also separate the member by their age if you would like or even the city in which they reside in. by adding even more detailed information it might be easier for some one else to view your database sheet especially if they have never worked with one before.
