Designing a Table from Scratch
Designing tables from scratch offers flexibility and encourages good design principles. This approach is almost always the best choice when you are creating a custom business solution. To design a table from scratch, click to select the Create tab and then select Table Design. The Table Design view window, pictured in Figure 2.5, appears. Follow these steps:Define each field in the table by typing its name in the Field Name column.
Tab to the Data Type column. Select the default field type, which is Text, or use the drop-down combo box to select another field type. You can find details on which field type is appropriate for your data in the "Selecting the Appropriate Field Type for Your Data" section of this chapter. If you use the Field Builder, it sets a data type value for you that you can modify.Continue entering fields. If you need to insert a field between two existing fields, click the Insert Rows button on the ribbon. Access inserts the new field above the field you were on. To delete a field, select it and click the Delete Rows button.
To save your work, click the Save tool on the Quick Access toolbar. The Save As dialog box, shown in Figure 2.6, appears. Enter a table name and click OK. A dialog box appears, recommending that you establish a primary key. Every table should have a primary key. The section of this chapter titled "Using the All-Important Primary Key" discusses the details of primary keys.
