Review the Record Source

The Receipt Subform will look up the data in a Table, tblMovieRented. Our discussion always begins by reviewing the data.

 

1. Try This: Review the Record Source

Go to All Access Objects ->Tables.

Open a Table: tblMovieRented.

 

Do This, Too: Change the View

Go to Home->Views->View.

Select a View: Design View.

 

What Do You See? This Table, tblMovieRented, has numbers only:

MovieRentedID (the Primary Key)

ReceiptID (a Foriegn Key)

CustomerID (a Foreign Key)

MovieID (a Foreign Key)

DateRented (Date/Time)

 

This Table is in Third Normal Form: the Key, the whole Key and nothing but the Key.

 

Please Close tblMovieRented. Keep going.
