[Page 864 (continued)] Do you have a collection of belongings that you like, such as a coin or stamp collection, a box of favorite recipes, or a stack of music CDs? Do you have an address book with the names, addresses, and phone numbers of your friends, business associates, and family members? If you collect something, chances are you have made an attempt to keep track of and organize the items in your collection. If you have an address book, you have probably wished it was better organized. A program like Microsoft Access can help you organize and keep track of information. Microsoft Office Access 2003 is a program to organize a collection of related information about a particular topic, such as all of the courses available at a college, the faculty who teach classes, and the students who are enrolled in classes. Whether you use Access for personal or business purposes, it is a powerful program that helps you organize, search, sort, retrieve, and present information about a particular subject in an organized manner. |
