There is a "northwind traders" sample database somewhere in the office directory that you can play around with.

Here is a (very very basic) access tutorial to get you started:

we can use the following:
1- we must create database
2-we must create the form
3-we must connect between the database and form
we use 1 control in our form
a-"datacontrol"
we must connect between this control and the database by two properties
1-databaseName
2-recordSource

to see the results we can use "databoundGrid" from the compontents and to connect between this control and database we can so this by the property which called "datasource"
