Understanding Datasheets
Using a datasheet is just one of the ways to view data in Access. A datasheet
is similar to a spreadsheet because it displays data as a series of rows and
columns. Figure 6-1 shows a typical Datasheet View of data. Each row represents
a single record, and each column represents a single field in the table.
Scroll up or down in the datasheet to see the rows (records) that don??™t fit on
the screen; scroll left or right to see the columns (fields) that don??™t fit.
