Microsoft Access

Microsoft Access (current full name Microsoft Office Access) is a relational database management system from Microsoft, packaged with Microsoft Office Professional which combines the relational Microsoft Jet Database Engine with a graphical user interface.

Microsoft Access can use data stored in Access/Jet, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, or any ODBC-compliant data container. Skilled software developers and data architects use it to develop powerful, complex application software. Relatively unskilled programmers and non-programmer "power users" can use it to build simple applications without having to deal with features they don't understand. It supports substantial object-oriented (OO) techniques but falls short of being a fully OO development tool.

Office Access 2007 introduces a few new file extensions:

  • ACCDB The file extension for the new Office Access 2007 file format. This takes the place of the MDB file extension.
  • ACCDE The file extension for Office Access 2007 files that are in "execute only" mode. ACCDE files have all Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) (Visual Basic for Applications (VBA): A macro-language version of Microsoft Visual Basic that is used to program Microsoft Windows-based applications and is included with several Microsoft programs.) source code removed. A user of an ACCDE file can only execute VBA code, not modify it. ACCDE takes the place of the MDE file extension.
  • ACCDT The file extension for Access Database Templates.
  • ACCDR ACCDR is a new file extension that enables you to open a database in runtime mode. By simply changing a database's file extension from .accdb to .accdr, you can create a "locked-down" version of your Office Access 2007 database. You can change the file extension back to .accdb to restore full functionality.

New features of the Office Access 2007 file format

Multivalued lookup fields Most database programs, including prior versions of Access, only allow you to store a single value in each field. In Office Access 2007, however, you can now create a lookup field that allows you to store more than one value in each field. In effect, it creates a many-to-many relationship within the field, and hides the details of the implementation using system tables.

For example, suppose you have a Task table with a lookup field that you used to assign the task to an employee. What if you have a task that you need to assign to several employees? In earlier versions of Access, you would need to set up a new cross-reference table to store each combination of task and employee, then revise your forms and reports to use the new data structure. In Office Access 2007, this is made much easier by implementing a multivalued lookup field. Instead of being able to select only one item from a drop-down list, now each item in the list has a check box next to it so that you can select as many as you like. The multiple selections are displayed in the field, separated by commas.

Find links to more information about multivalued lookup fields in the See Also section.

Attachment data type The new Attachment data type lets you easily store all types of documents and binary files in your database without unnecessary database bloat. Attachments are automatically compressed when appropriate to maximize space usage. You can attach a Microsoft Office Word 2007 document to a record, or save a series of digital pictures. You can even have multiple attachments attached to a single record.

For more information about attaching files to records, see the links in the See Also section.

Integration with Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 and Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 In the past, Access files have been blocked from Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 and Office Outlook 2007 due to the fact that unsafe code could be included within an Access database. Office Access 2007 implements a new format that allows code to be either verified as safe or disabled. This makes it possible to integrate Access databases much more fully with Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 and Office Outlook 2007, and it also allows anti-virus programs to inspect Access database files much more easily.

Work with your SharePoint data offline You can take your SharePoint lists offline with one click using Office Access 2007. Work on your data in Access and then synchronize your changes, or reconnect with the SharePoint site at a later time.

Memo field history tracking Memo fields are useful for storing large amounts of information. Starting with Office Access 2007, you can set a property (AppendOnly) that forces Access to retain a history of all changes to a Memo field. You can then view a history of those changes. This feature also supports the versioning feature in Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 so that you can use Access to track changes in a multiple lines of text field stored in a SharePoint list (provided that the field has the Append Changes to Existing Text option set to Yes).

Name:LACCDB
File Type:Microsoft Access lock file
Popularity:3
Category:Office 2007 document file
File Description:When you open an Office Access 2007 database, file locking is controlled by a locking file with the file name extension .laccdb. The .laccdb file corresponds to the .ldb locking file that is created when you open an earlier version Access (.mdb) file. The type of locking file that is created depends on the file type of the database that is being opened, not which version of Access you are using. For example, if you open the file Db1.mdb, Access creates and opens a file named Db1.ldb. By contrast, if you open the file Db1.accdb, Access creates and opens a file named Db1.laccdb. Locking files are deleted automatically when all users close the database.

Name:DOTX
File Type:Word 2007 XML template file
Popularity:3
Category:Office 2007 document file
File Description:DOCT is the default format of new Microsoft Word 2007 text editor. It is template file. Template files are used for for specifying future documents.

Following the advent of XML in the 1990s, corporate computing customers began to realize the business value in adopting open formats and standardization in the computer products and applications that they relied on. IT professionals benefited from the common data format possible with XML because of its capacity to be read by applications, platforms, and Internet browsers.

Likewise, with the adoption of support for XML in Microsoft Office 2000, developers began to see the need to transition from the binary file formats seen in previous versions of Microsoft Office to the XML format. Binary files (.doc, .dot, .xls, and .ppt files), which for years did a great job of storing and transporting data, were not able to meet the new workplace challenges that included easily moving data between disparate applications, and allowing users to glean business insight from that data.

The 2007 Microsoft Office system continues with this transition by adopting an XML-based file format for Microsoft Office Excel 2007, Microsoft Office Word 2007, and Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2007. The new file format, called Office Open XML Formats, addresses these workplace issues with changes that affect the way that you approach solutions based on Microsoft Office documents.

The new formats improve file and data management, data recovery, and interoperability with line-of-business systems. They extend what is possible with the binary files of earlier versions. Any application that supports XML can access and work with data in the new file format. The application does not need to be part of the Microsoft Office system or even a Microsoft product. Users can also use standard transformations to extract or repurpose the data. In addition, security concerns are drastically reduced because the information is stored in XML, which is essentially plain text. Thus, the data can pass through corporate firewalls without hindrance.

WRITER has everything you would expect from a modern, fully equipped word processor or desktop publisher.

It's simple enough for a quick memo, powerful enough to create complete books with contents, diagrams, indexes, etc. You're free to concentrate on your message - while WRITER makes it look great.

 The Wizards takes all the hassle out of producing standard documents such as letters, faxes, agendas, minutes, or carrying out more complex tasks such as mail merges. You are of course free to create your own templates, or download templates from our Extensions repository.

Styles and Formatting puts the power of style sheets into the hands of every user.

Trap typing mistakes on the fly with the AutoCorrect dictionary, which can check your spelling as you type. If you need to use different languages in your document - WRITER can handle that too.

Reduce typing effort with AutoComplete, which suggests common words and phrases to complete what you are typing.

Text frames and linking give you the power to tackle desktop publishing tasks for newsletters, flyers, etc. laid out exactly the way you want them to be.

Increase the usefulness of your long, complex documents by generating a table of contents or indexing terms, bibliographical references, illustrations, tables, and other objects.

WRITER can also display multiple pages while you edit - ideal for complex documents, or if you have a large monitor (or multiple monitors).

The advanced notes feature displays notes on the side of the document. This makes notes a lot easier to read. In addition, notes from different users are displayed in different colours together with the editing date and time.

Make your documents freely available with WRITER's HTML export to the web, or export in MediaWiki format for publishing to wikis. Publish in Portable Document Format (.pdf) to guarantee that what you write is what your reader sees. The PDF export feature in OpenOffice.org provides a huge set of formatting and security options; so that PDF files can be customized for many different scenarios, including ISO standard PDF/A files.

Save your documents in OpenDocument format, the new international standard for office documents. This XML based format means you're not tied in to WRITER. You can access your documents from any OpenDocument compliant software.

WRITER can of course read all your old Microsoft Word documents, or save your work in Microsoft Word format for sending to people who are still locked into Microsoft products. From version 3.0 WRITER can also open .docx files created with Microsoft Office 2007 or Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac OS X.
