Creating Database Tables

In a database, a table stores information for a group of things, we call fields or columns. For example, a table might hold an address book, a stock list, a phone book or a price list. A database can have from one to several tables.

To work with tables, click the Tables icon in the Database list, or press  Alt  +  A . The three tasks that you can perform on a table are in the Tasks list (see Figure 160).
