Question 1. Databases
Everyone has had some experience with data. Even if you are new to the Database world you have this experience since your personal information is data in many places. List an example of a database and how you interact with that database. One example might be as a customer receiving monthly bills. Another example might be your personal information collected at a medical office.
Question 2. Running Access
If you have not already done so, install Microsoft Access (this is a free 30-day trial for Office 365 Home Premium). In the response to this forum, note that you have successfully installed the product and what you experienced in the install and as you first opened the tool. We will all start with a sample database to get familiar with Access in Week 2. If you have any issues or unexpected results, this is a great place to share your experience.
