Hi,

I need to have an updated database made but I am at a total loss. Does anyone on here build Access databases as part of their business?

I need this done ASAP!

Thanks!

    While this is great information, as I said in my initial question I have a traumatic brain injury and I no longer can do this type of creating a database. This is why I am looking for someone who can revamp my original database.

    Thank you so much though!

    Hello,

    Greetings for the day! I’m an, Independent Advisor and Microsoft user like you. Thanks for writing here at this forum.

    With Access, you can build a database without writing code or being a database expert.

    Well-designed templates help you quickly build databases. Easily find just the data you want with queries. Instantly create forms for simple data entry. Summarize data in grouped and summary reports. Dozens of Wizards make it easy to get started and get productive.

    To create a new Database,

    1. Open Access.
    2. If Access is already open, select File > New.
    3. Select Blank database, or select a template.
    4. Enter a name for the database, select a location, and then select Create. If needed, select Enable content in the yellow message bar when the database opens.

    To import data,

    1. Open the Excel workbook, make sure each column has a heading and a consistent data type, and then select the range of data.
    2. Select External Data > Excel.
    3. Select Browse to find the Excel file, accept the default values, and then click OK.
    4. Select Does the first row of your data contain column headings?, and then click Next.
    5. Complete the rest of the wizard screens, and select Finish.
