Dear User
 
It is very difficult to give explanation to each and everything of how it should be performed. Here, I am giving some steps / points with which you can finish off your assignment.
 
 
Step 1: Click on start button and goto programs and from there select Microsoft Access ( sometime available under Microsoft Office ) and click on it
 
Step2 : Access sw opens ( sometime upon selection of blank database) and you will be prompted to save the file name.
 
Step3 : Give a file name( I gave 'AB' on my system) and click on the Save button.
 
Step4 : A window will be opened for you which looks like bellow. ( Please note that Tables got highlighted).
 
 
Step 5: Now double click on "Create table in Design View". Enter the entries. Now, it will open another window which looks like below.
 
 
 
 
Enter the fields of the table which was shown as below and then click on the inner close button of the window. Then it will be something like as shown below.
 
Now click on the button "Yes" and give the name to the table as Phone and then press the OK button
 
 
Then it will ask for the primary key. Press the button No
 
Now the table was created and the window looks like this.
 
 
Now click on "Forms". Then it looks like following
 
 
Right click on "Create form by using wizard" so that you can see the following window.
 
 
click on ">>" button so that all the fields on the left will move onto right.
 
 
Now press either "Finish" button or contineously press "Next" button to see the following window.
 
 
close this window and right click on Phone and then click on the Design View option to make modifications
 
 
Select the command button that exists on the extreme left of the window on the toolbox
 
 
Place the command button as shown below and select FindRecord as shown below
 
 
Similarly take another command button and select DeleteRecord as shown below.
 
 
Press the "Next" button and select TrashCan1 as shown below and then press the Finish button.
 
 
That all everything and you can see the final design view of the form. Just close the following window for execution of the form.
 
 
Double click on Phone and you will get the required execution with the form.
