Save the Table

So far so good. You can add and delete data in this little Table. It is always a good idea to saves things that work.

 

7. Try it: Save the Table

Go to File->Save.

You will be prompted by a Save As box.

Enter a Table Name: tblCustomers

Click OK.

 

The tab at the top of the Table1 should say tblCustomers, now.

 

Memo to Self: One key to working with databases is naming objects consistently. The Tables, Forms, Queries and Reports should be named according to the object they use. For example, tblCustomers has customer data, not movie data.
