Entering and editing data in tables in MS Access

 Entering and editing data in tables in MS Access

Entering and editing data in tables in MS Access is a simple process that can be done using the "Datasheet View." The following steps outline the process:

1. Open MS Access and open the database that contains the table you want to enter data into.
2. Click on the "View" button in the "Home" tab in the ribbon and select "Datasheet View."
3. In the "Datasheet View," enter data into the first empty row of the table by clicking in the first column of the row and typing the data.
4. Repeat the previous step for each column in the row and for each row you want to enter data into.
5. To edit data in an existing row, click on the cell you want to edit and type the new data.
6. To delete a row, click on the row to select it and press the "Delete" key on your keyboard.
7. To add a new row, click on the row number at the left edge of the "Datasheet View" and press the "Tab" key on your keyboard.
8. Save the data by clicking on the "Save" button in the "Quick Access Toolbar" or by pressing "Ctrl + S" on your keyboard.

Note: You can also enter and edit data in a table by using a form in MS Access. To do this, click on the "Create" tab in the ribbon, select "Form," and choose the type of form you want to create. You can then enter data into the form and save it just as you would in the "Datasheet View."
