Identifying the Basic Parts of the Access Window
The database window
Database toolbar
The database toolbar presents operations that can be performed against different database objects, including buttons to open an object, design an object, create a new object, and delete an object.
Left pane
Database objects are created and opened by choosing any of the buttons listed in the left pane of the database window.
Right pane
Any of the first four options—tables, queries, forms, or reports—opens additional choices related to that selection in the right pane.
Choosing the tables button, for example, displays at least three options in the right pane: Create a table in Design view, Create a table by using wizard, and Create table by entering data. It also shows any objects you created in the database.
