database more efficient, and reduces data-entry
errors

special object types, called controls, to
provide access to table data

tables. They are used as the primary method
of entering, editing, and displaying data

database table.

portion of the data form tables (or existing queries).

 A report is a design document that displays formatted data from one
or more database tables. Reports are designed for printing and
distribution to an audience

meaningful information using calculations, record lists, totals, and
