Course Description: This is the second part of the Managing Environmental Data with Microsoft Access 2007 training class. In the first class, COMP-401, students learn the basic elements of constructing queries, forms, macros and reports. Now they build on and deepen those skills by creating end-user application examples that bring all of those newly learned elements together. In addition, the Access analytic tools PivotCharts and PivotTables are introduced and an SQL primer is included. Comp-402 is split out into a separate class to allow students flexibility in their scheduling and may be taken at a later date although it is highly recommended that the two class series be taken together. Comp-402 is not meant to be taken as a stand-alone class without taking Comp-401.

Course Topics:

Applied Query Functions

Form Controls

Customizing Controls

Building Reports from Calculated Queries

Working with Pivot Charts and Pivot Tables

Designing Macros

Creating Switchboard Forms
