SUBTOPIC 1: Definition of Spreadsheet

Spreadsheet is an interactive computer application for organization, analysis and storage


of data in tabular form. Spreadsheets are developed as computerized simulations of
paper accounting worksheets. The program operates on data entered in cells of a table.
Each cell may contain either numeric or text data, or the results of formulas that
automatically calculate and display a value based on the contents of other cells. A
spreadsheet may also refer to one such electronic document.

Spreadsheet is simply a sheet of paper on which horizontal and vertical lines to generate
a rectangular grid, much as your mathematics copy. A spreadsheet can also be called a
workbook or code book. A workbook (e.g. Excel) is a collection of one or more
worksheets (A worksheet is like a page in the workbook). Each square or block is used to
write number or text or figure for calculations if required as shown below;

A rectangular grid for data entry

A spreadsheet consists of a table of cells arranged into rows and columns and referred to
by the X and Y locations. X locations, the columns, are normally represented by letters,
"A", "B", "C", etc., while rows are normally represented by numbers, 1, 2, 3, etc. A single
cell can be referred to by addressing its row and column, "C10" for instance. This
electronic concept of cell references was first introduced in LANPAR (Language for
Programming Arrays at Random) (co-invented by Rene Pardo and Remy Landau) and a
variant used in VisiCalc, and known as "A1 notation". Additionally, spreadsheets have the
concept of a range, a group of cells, normally contiguous.

TOPIC: DATABASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM I

CONTENT:
1. Definition of Database Management
2. Uses of Spreadsheet and Ms-Access for Database Management.

SUB-TOPIC 1: Definition of Database Management


A database is an organized collection of data. A database program is software which stores and retrieved
data in a structured way.

A Database is a single organized collection of data for one or more purposes stored with minimum
duplication of data items so as to provide a consistent and controlled pool of data. For example a school
students’ database will contain data relating to the student such as academic results, school fees,
accommodation et.c

A Database Management System (DBMS) is software that controls the storage, retrieval and
manipulation of data stored in a database. Using a DBMS makes files easy to store, edit and retrieved
effectively. Examples of DBMS are: Microsoft Access, Dbase IV, Oracle, MYSQL, MSSQL, and FoxBASE
plus, Sybase.

Examples of Database management System


MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, SQLite,
Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, SAP HANA, dBASE,
FoxPro, IBM DB2, LibreOffice Base, FileMaker Pro,
Microsoft Access InterSystems Caché, Paradox, SYBASE,
SYSTEM 2000, FileMaker, INFORMIX,

BASIC TERMINOLOGIES
FIELD: is a single item of data, such as a forename or date of birth. Each field has a field name that is
used to identify it within the database. Field is also called ‘attribute’. It is a single unit of information in a
table.

RECORD: is a collection of fields, for example all the information about one person or one item. Record
is also known as ‘tuple’. Is also a set of all data fields for one row of the table pertaining to an individual,
place or thing.
FILE: is an organized collection of records, usually where all the records are organized so that they can
be stored together. A file can have one or more table within it.

TABLE: A table is made up of rows and columns. It is a collection of data organized into rows and
columns. A table is the basic unit of a database, each row holds a record and each column represents a
field.

SUB-TOPIC 2:
Definition of Ms- Access
Ms Access is a relational database management system, is used to create simple database. It consists of a
query interface, forms to display and enter data and reports for printing.

Uses of Ms-Access for Database Management


 Microsoft Access is used to create databases. It is used with other products but as front end
application only. MS SQL Server, Oracle programs that can be used as back end applications and
Access tables support a variety of standard field types, indices and referential integrity.
 The underlying Jet database, which contains a query interface, forms to display and enter data,
and reports for printing, is multiuser-aware and handles record-locking and referential integrity
including cascading, updates and deletes.

 Repetitive tasks can be automated through macros with point-and-click options.

 Data in Microsoft Access is locked at the record level which is significantly different
from Excel which locks the entire spreadsheet.

 Microsoft Access also offers the ability for programmers to create solutions using
the programming language Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), which is similar to Visual Basic 6.0
(VB6) and used throughout theMicrosoft Office programs such
as Excel, Word, Outlook and PowerPoint.

 Microsoft Access is designed to scale to support more data and users by linking to multiple
Access databases or using a back-end database like Microsoft SQL Server. With the latter design,
the amount of data and users can scale to enterprise-level solutions.
 Access 2010 allows databases to be published to Share Point 2010 web sites running Access
Services. The resulting web forms and reports, when accessed via a web browser, don't require
any add-ins or extensions and can be run in any browser.

 The capability of Microsoft Access that is easy enough for end users to create their own queries,
forms and reports, laying out fields and groupings, setting formats, allows
professional developers, as well as end users, to develop a wide range of applications to fulfill the
needs of an organization or commercial purpose.
