This database project has really opened my eyes to the power of these programs. I really learned about the process of assembling a database and how you can make it work for you by organizing your data into meaningful reports. I learned how to import excel spreadsheets, which turned out to be much more difficult than I thought it would be. I found that rearranging the delimited information in excel first made things much easier.
I really think that the skills and information that I learned in this project will help to serve me greatly in the future by enabling me to create more professional data presentations. I feel that the Query function in Access is incredibly powerful and I managed to do thing that I would never have imagined before with the data after finishing the project. I also feel that the "form" function would be incredibly valuable to a business that needed to be able to quickly enter information into a database. All-in-all I think it is amazing that this program is not more widely used through high school and in the normal business environment, because I feel that it takes the data and puts a finishing touch on it.
