Data is of extremely limited value unless it can be quickly and easily sorted, searched, and linked to other data—tasks at which database management systems excel. This program takes viewers through the fundamentals of making and maintaining a database: creating a basic table structure, setting up relationships, creating a data capture form, formulating queries, setting up reports, and creating and running macros. Featured DBMSs include Oracle, DB2, Access, MySQL, 4D, and FileMaker Pro. Viewable/printable educational resources are available online. (26 minutes)
