Relational DB

How do I creat a Relational DB?

RE: Relational DB

Hi Pajam

Using access to create a relational DB can be a complex series of steps. Essentially you need to create a minimum of two tables and then link them together by a common field using a relationship.

As an example, you might have a suppliers table and a products table. Each supplier provides many products. So the products table would have a suppliers field that would link the product with the supplier.

In principal, that is how it works.

Access tip:

How To Find All Overdue Accounts?

To find overdue accounts create a filter that compares today's date with the Invoice Date in the table. To do this:

1. Open the Query in Design View
2. Select the field for the filter and in the criteria row enter:

<Date()

This filter returns records where the Invoice Date is before today's date.

This filter can be manipulated if, for instance, Invoices are due 15 days after the Invoice Date. For this the filter would be:

<Date()-15

This filter returns records where the Invoice Date is 15 days before today's date.
