CIS 100 -- Access Assignment 2

Overview

In this lab, you will use MS Access to perform queries on the database you created in the first assignment.

You will perform the following queries, and save each query as the name in parentheses in bold (such as (first query)). You will need to copy your access1.mdb file from your backup to your application disk and call it access2.mdb. Hint: copy and rename the file.

To Do

NOTE: If you must change your table design in order to do the queries, you should note that on your grade sheet. You might want to add records to your database so that you can test whether these queries work. Be sure to test that they do.
1.
(everyone): Query the first name, last name, and state of each person in your database sorted by last name in ascending order.
2.
(youngsters): Query the first name, last name, and age of people between the ages of 15 and 30.
3.
(georgians): Query the first name, last name, state, and zip code of people that live in the state of GA.
4.
(georgian adults): Query the first name, last name, state and birthday of people who live in GA and are at least 15 years old.
5.
(generosity): Query the total cost of all the gifts you have given.
6.
(beneficiaries): Query the first name, last name, and the number of gifts given of people you have given gifts to.
7.
(birthday gifts): Query the first name, last name, gifts, and when given for only the people you gave birthday gifts to last year.
8.
(next bdays): Query the first name, last name, and DOB for people that were born in the month of December. (Hint, you may need wild-cards here.)
9.
(non-locals): Query the first name, last name and state of those people that do not live in GA or in FL.
10.
(generosity detail): Query the first name, last name, and number of birthday and christmas gifts you have given to each person. (That's two numbers for each person, the total number of gifts given for each of those occasions.)
