    Sample database for a beginner

    Hi,

    I'm beginning to learn Access and was wondering where I could find a really simple sample database say with two tables and 20 or so rows. I'd like to see how two tables work and then practice importing the data in excel using ms query.

    Thanks for your help.

    Here's three free resources for learning Access:
    http://www.functionx.com/access/
    http://www.learnaccessnow.com/
    http://www.accessmvp.com/Strive4Peace/

    Here's a great page of tips collected by MVP Allen Browne. The applications section has lots of sample databases.

    (Oh, and any moderator might want to move this thread to the General Access Forum, since it doesn't contain any sample database)
