Tables
A table is a database object that you use to store data
about a particular subject.
Each table stores information about a specific
subject, so most databases include more than one
table.
A table consists of records and fields.
Each table can contain many fields of different types
of data.
Forms
Forms make it easier to view or get to the database
items you want.
Forms are also used for entering, modifying and
viewing records.
Forms
Example of a form:
Queries
Queries are used to review, add, change, or delete data
from your database.
Queries
Queries are a way of searching for
and compiling data from one or more tables.
Queries are used defining specific search
conditions to find exactly the data you want.
Reports
Reports offer a way to view, format, and summarize the
information in your Microsoft Access database.
Reports
A report is a database object that comes in handy when
you want to present the information in your database
for any of the following uses:
Display or distribute a summary of data.
Archive snapshots of the data.
Provide details about individual records.
Create labels.

Macro
A macro is a tool that allows you to automate tasks and
add functionality to your forms, reports, and controls.
Macro
Macros as a simplified programming language that you
write by building a list of actions to perform.
Macros enable you to add functionality to forms,
reports, and controls without writing code in a Visual
Basic for Applications (VBA) module.
Modules
A module is a collection of declarations, statements,
and procedures that are stored together as a unit.
Modules are very similar to Macros since they are
objects that add functionality to the database.
