they both contain organized information. And, as
libraries do, databases are organized in rows and
columns, with cells each one containing certain
information.

4. Microsoft Access

databases, however, one of the most famous, and the
one we will be working with, is Microsoft Access
2010.

6. Types of data
 There are different types of data (Such as Text,
Number, Date/Hour, etc). However, “19” could be both
text and a number, it depends on how you state it to
be.

7. Templates
 When working with Access, templates as very useful.
They are examples of databases, they have tables,
forms, reports, queries, etc. Use them as a guide for
elaborating databases.

8. Real-life applications
 Databases are used in many technology devices. For
example, the contact list of your cell is a type of
database. Buying tickets by internet also involves a
type of database.
