Excel and access

Hi Cassie

Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.

Excel is useful for performing calculations/working with financial information. It can also be used for storing and manipulating data, but only to a limited extent.

Access is better for storing and manipulating large amounts of data. The power of Access lies in being able to store data within a series of tables, which are linked with each other. With Access you can create queries which allow you to extract lots of different combinations of information from your data.
