Exploring Microsoft Access 2003 Chapter 4 Proficiency: Relational Databases, External Data, Charts, Pivot, and the Switchboard
2
Objectives (1 of 2) Describe one-to-many relationships Create a one-to-many relationship Use the Get External Data command to get data from Microsoft Office Excel Create and modify a multiple-table select query.
3
Objectives (2 of 2) Use aggregate functions to create a totals query Use Microsoft graph to create a chart based on a table or query Use the Switchboard Manager to create and/or modify a switchboard
4
Overview Share data between Microsoft Office applications Display data from two tables in one query Total query aggregates results from groups of records to create summary information Create Chart and Pivot Create a user interface
5
Multiple-Table Queries One-to-many relationship Primary key (PK) Foreign key (FK) i) Consider two relation schemas R 1 and R 2 ; ii) The attributes in FK in R 1 have the same domain(s) as the primary key attributes PK in R 2 ; the attributes FK are said to reference or refer to the relation R 2.
6
Referential integrity A value of FK in a tuple (record) t 1 of the current state r(R 1 ) either occurs as a value of PK for some tuple t 2 in the current state r(R 2 ) or is null. In the former case, we have t 1 [FK] = t 2 [PK], and we say that the tuple t 1 references or refers to the tuple t 2. Example: Employee(SSN, …, Dno)Dept(Dno, … ) FK

Get External Data Get External Data command Export command Import Spreadsheet Wizard Import Text Wizard Importing versus linking
8
Importing & Exporting Hands-On Exercise 1 Open the Investment Database Import Spreadsheet Wizard Create the Relationship Print the Relationship Add the New Data Create & Complete the Multiple-Table Query Export the Query and Modified Tables View the Excel Workbook
9
Multiple Table Query Relationship between tables Each field & table to display
10
Total Queries A total query Summary functions Total row Group By Count function Sum function
11
Total Queries & Charts Hands-On Exercise 2 Copy Assets Under Management Query Create a Total Query Check Your Progress Start the Chart Wizard Complete the Chart Wizard Increase the Plot Area Change the Data
12
Total Query Run button Select Count from drop-down menu
13
SELECT Consultants.Lastname, Count(Clients.LastName), Sum(Assets) FROM Consultants, Clients WHERE Consultant.ConsultantID = Clients.ConsultantID GROUP BY Consultants.Lastname
15
SELECT Consultants.Lastname, Consultants.Status, Clients.Lastname, Clients.CountType, Clients.Assets FROM Consultants, Clients WHERE Consultant.ConsultantID = Clients.ConsultantID GROUP BY Consultants.Lastname
16
The results are grouped according to the last name of the consultants. The records with the same last name are in the same group. 4 5 1 5 4
17
Referential Integrity Delete Record button Click + to display related records You cannot delete a Consultant without first deleting related Clients
18
fname, minit, lname, ssn, bdate, address, sex, salary, superssn, dno Dname, dnumber, mgrssn, mgrstartdate Dnumber, dlocation Pname, pnumber, plocation, dnum Essn, pno, hours Essn, dependentname, sex, bdate, relationship EMPLOYEE DEPARTMENT DEPT _LOCATIONS WORKS_ON PROJECT DEPENDENT
19
Updating and constraints delete Delete the WORK_ON tuple with Essn = ‘999887777’ and pno = 10. When deleting, the referential constraint will be checked. - The following deletion is not acceptable: Delete the EMPLOYEE tuple with ssn = ‘999887777’ - reject, cascade, modify (cascade update)
20
Cascade delete – a strategy to enforce referential integrity ssn Employee Essn Pno delete Works-on delete
21
Cascade delete – a strategy to enforce referential integrity Employee delete ssn supervisor null Employee delete ssn supervisor null delete not reasonable
22
Modify – a strategy to enforce referential integrity ssn Employee Essn Pno delete Essn Pno null This violates the entity constraint. Works-on
23
Modify – a strategy to enforce referential integrity ssn Employee delete This does not violate the entity constraint. Department Dno chairman Department null Dno chairman
24
Chart Wizard View button Modified Y and X axis now match the query data Chart from Wizard
25
The User Interface Switchboard Switchboard Manager Switchboard Items table
26
Other Access Utilities Convert Database command Compact and Repair Database command
27
Compact the Database View button Select the database Click compact
28
The Switchboard Manager Hands-On Exercise 3 Start the Switchboard Manager Complete the Switchboard Test the Switchboard Insert the Clip Art Complete the Design The Completed Switchboard Compact the Database
29
Switchboard Manager Each button corresponds to a command
30
Chapter 4 Summary (1 of 2) One-to-many relationships A query can display data from multiple tables Get External Data command A total query performs calculations on a group of records using summary functions
31
Chapter 4 Summary (2 of 2) Switchboard Manager creates the user interface (Switchboard) Convert Database command changes an Access 2000 file to a previous version Compact and Repair Database command
32
Practice with Access 1. The Client Master List 2. The HMO Database 3. Creating a Switchboard 4. The Look Ahead Databas 5. Linking Versus Importing 6. Pivot Tables 7. Pivot Charts
33
Case Studies Your First Consultant’s Job The Wellness Center The Database Wizard Compacting Versus Compressing
