Workout Database Query Week 2

Hello everyone, the first query that I will create is parameter query. A point of reference can be utilized in parameter query to limit the deposit of records which are given back by the query.

A parameter query can be easily written. First, a select query is developed. Then it is opened in design view. There appear different rows pertaining to a specific field. In the Criteria row, that text is added which a person wants to show in the parameter pack (Microsoft. n.d.). This text is surrounded by square brackets. I will use the name of the dieter to check the record for weekly workout and nutrition. I will use parameter query because it permits to employ the similar query again and again without involving the need for persistently opening it in design view and changing the text in criteria row (Microsoft. n.d.).

The second query that I will create is select query. This kind of query can be developed in design view or in query wizard. The fundamental steps followed by the two techniques are identical to each other (Microsoft. n.d.). To develop a select query those tables are chosen that act as means of information and then, those fields are specified that a person want to take from data places. For instance, I will choose the name, foot intake and duration of the workouts. I will use select query because it assists in gathering data from different data places.

The third query that I will develop is update query. Firstly, a select query is developed to recognize the records that a person desires to update. Later, this query is changed to an update query. By choosing the data at the start, it is validated that the records are updated prior to any alterations in data. I will develop this query because it helps in updating the desired data in a feasible way. For example, for updating the BMI I will use an update query.

Access helps in tracing, showing and handling huge quantities of data. Access is a well-organized method to contrast the information in worksheets (Taylor, n.d.). Access database can keep the data separately for each item. Access offer usage of reports and queries and additional records can be added for free. It saves the data at one location and mentions about it at several locations (Chung, n.d.). Therefore, I believe that it would be finer to use Access as compared to the Excel.
