Differentiate between absolute and relative hyperlinks

An absolute hyperlink stores the complete location where the

file is stored. if the file is removed from the location, absolute
hyperlink will not work

A relative hyperlink stores the location with respect to the

current location.
Define the following with respect to database:
(a) Forms
A form is a feature of a database using which we can enter data
in a table in an easy and user friendly manner. A form consists
of text boxes, labels, radio buttons, list boxes, check boxes etc.
25 that give a user friendly interface for entering data.

(b) Reports.
The output of a query may be displayed in the form of reports.
The usual result of the query is in the form of rows and
columns.
List the four advantages of DBMS.

Organised Storage – The data in the database is stored in an

organised manner, so that retrieval of the required data is fast
and accurate.

Data Analysis – A database helps in analysis of data based on

certain criteria. It is easy to find out maximum or minimum
value, average or mean using a database.

26 Data Sharing – If the same data set is required for different

applications then the database can be shared with other
applications

Minimal Data Redundancy – In the event of requiring the

same data field in several tables the data field might get
repeated in number of tables. This is called as data
redundancy

Data Consistency – By minimising data redundancy, chances

of inconsistent data being stored is reduced.

 Explain the advantages of relating tables in database

• A relationship can help prevent data redundancy.

• It helps prevent missing data by keeping deleted data from
getting out of synch. This is called referential integrity. We
will study in detail about referential integrity later in the
34 chapter.
• Creating relationships between tables restricts the user from
entering invalid data in the referenced fields.
• Any updation in the master table is automatically reflected in
the transaction tables.
