Access Project 1:: Creating A New Artists Database
Objectives Practiced
Create a new database.
Save a table.
Enter records.
Lloyd owns the Grey Tornado Gallery, a small downtown art gallery that showcases local artists.
The gallery has recently expanded into an outdoor space next to the building and has started
hosting a monthly art market where artists can rent a booth to sell their work. The art market is
growing in popularity, and Lloyd decides it would be easier to use a database to keep records.
1. Create a new blank database, and save it as Art Market.accdb in the location where you store
your data files.
2. In the table, rename the ID field Artist ID.
3. Assign the Number data type for the Artist ID field, and make sure the values entered in this
field are required to be unique.
4. In Datasheet view, add the following new fields in the table from left to right: Last Name, First
Name, Phone #, Type of Art.
5. Enter data into the table as shown in the figure below.
