Entering data to the table is the second of a two-step process in creating a database. When adding data, Microsoft Access displays the field names across the top of the window. A record selector points to the current record indicating the current status of this record.

If a field is of type AutoNumber, Access will automatically insert a number in this field. To add data, simply type it in the appropriate field. Press the Tab key to move between fields.

To delete a record, click the record selection column next to the record and press the delete key. Access confirms the deletion and removes the record. If the record contains an AutoNumber field, Access will not reuse the deleted record's number in a new record.

And now, for a quiz!
