Microsoft Access – Module 3

OKAY, it’s Practice Time!

The following exercise is a test to make sure that you understand and have absorbed the key points we
have learned so far. Read the entire assignment before you try it.

In the Tables and Queries.accdb database, we need to see which Trainer taught which Course-name in
which Project to which Client-ID, sorted by the Project ID

 So create that query using the Project and Trainer tables

o We want to see the Trainer’s full name in one column (concatenate)
 Add the Cost-field and Total it at the bottom
o If you need to review how to insert a Total-row, look for that lesson in Module 1
 Name that query qryWhoTaughtWhat

While that query is still open, go to the File-tab and choose [Save Object As], naming it
qryDillonAndAbbott
 Edit the query so that when you run this query, it always shows only those courses taught to the
clients “Dillon” and “Abbott”
 Test it
 Save it
 Close it

Run qryWhoTaughtWhat and see that all the clients are displayed
 Make note of the total amt of the Cost-field

Run qryDillonAndAbbott and see that only Dillon and Abbott are displayed
 Notice that the total of the Cost-field is now updated for just these clients
