Data Entry Forms

Introduction

It is perfectly possible to enter data directly into a table into a database, however it is much better to create a form specifically designed for that purpose.

A form helps users enter the right data in the right place, checking it’s in the right format.

Forms can add clear labels, instructions and pictures as well as drop down lists and check-boxes for data entry.

A form might include navigation options to allow you to move through records as well as add and delete records.
