 What is a MS Access?
 Microsoft Access is a well-known database management system produced by Microsoft and is part of the
Microsoft 365 office suite.
 Microsoft Access combines Microsoft’s relational Jet Database Engine with software development tools
and a graphic user interface (GUI).
 It was first released in November 1992, so it’s been around for a while. In the rapidly changing, fast-paced
IT world, we can best describe a 30-year-old program as "venerable."
