Using the Form Wizard
• A form is an Access database object
that allows you to arrange the fields
of a record in any layout so you can
enter, edit, and delete records
• One way to create a form is by using
the Form Wizard
• The Wizard asks you questions to
determine the information you want
•

Creating a Split Form
• The benefit of a split form is that the
upper pane allows you to display the
fields of one record in any
arrangement, and the lower pane
maintains a datasheet view of the
first few records, which you can
navigate very quickly

order Microsoft Office 2010-Illustrated 22
