Description
Including a section which introduces database programming languages, this text describes the creation of database tables, forms, reports and shows how to use them to extract information. The majority of the examples in this book use two of the most popular database systems, dBASE and Paradox, although a survey of a number of popular windows based systems is also provided. Each chapter ends with a set of suggested assignments to amplify the work covered, together with a summary of the main points included in the chapter.
