Week 11: Muddy

This week, I’m having a hard time grasping the concept of Queries in Access. The lecture briefly describes queries as how you interact with data from a database. It also explains how they support four basic data operations. I’m still a little confused. After researching, I found a more detailed definition at wikianswers.com as my reference.

A query is a way of extracting information from a database in Microsoft Access. It’s one of the most important things in a database to get information from your database or manipulate data. It usually involves certain criteria or requesting certain data. You can use queries to extract data to a separate table or delete data, change data and many other things.
