FEATURES- Microsoft Access 2007- Full version
Microsoft Office Access 2007 is a desktop database program that
helps information workers start tracking information quickly,
create meaningful reports with ease, and share data more securely
using the Web.
Office Access 2007 enables you to quickly track and report
information with ease, using an improved interface and interactive
design capabilities that do not require deep database knowledge.
Get started easily using prebuilt database solutions--modify and
adapt them to your changing business needs. Collect information
through forms in e-mail or import data from external applications.
Create and edit detailed reports that display sorted, filtered, and
grouped information to facilitate more informed decision making.
Share information with others using Microsoft Windows SharePoint
Services technology lists, where you can audit revision history,
recover deleted information, set data access permissions, and back
up your information at regular intervals.
* Quickly Get Started Tracking Information
Start working immediately using Office Access 2007 prebuilt database
solutions.
- Out-of-the-box database solutions. The new Getting Started screen
includes a variety of prebuilt database solutions. You can use these
applications right out of the box--or treat them like templates and
enhance and refine them to accommodate the kind of information you
want to track or the way in which you want to track it. These
predefined applications can help you track contacts, events, issues,
assets, tasks, and more. Other application templates will become
available over time from Microsoft Office Online and will be
advertised in the Getting Started window.
- Results-oriented user interface. Office Access 2007 has been updated
with a fresh look that makes it easier to create, modify, and work
with database solutions. The new results-oriented user interface (UI)
is context-sensitive and optimized for efficiency and
discoverability. While nearly 1,000 commands are available, the new
UI displays only those that are relevant to the task you are
performing at any given moment. In addition, tabbed windows view, a
new status bar, new scroll bars, and a new title bar give
applications built on Office Access 2007 a very modern look.
- Improved navigation. Office Access 2007 provides you with a
comprehensive view of tables, forms, queries, and reports with a new
Navigation Pane. You can even create custom groups to organize and
see all the forms and reports related to a single table.
- Quickly create tables. Office Access 2007 makes it easier to work
directly within a datasheet to create and customize tables. Start
entering information into a data cell--just as you do today in
Microsoft Office Excel. When you enter a new value, Office Access
2007 automatically adds a new field and detects the data type (for
example, date, number, or text). You can even paste Excel tables into
a new datasheet, and Office Access 2007 will build all the fields and
recognize the data types automatically.
- Import contact records from Microsoft Office Outlook 2007. Office
Access 2007 makes it easy to exchange an individual Access 2007
contact record with Office Outlook 2007. You can import an Office
Outlook 2007 contact record into Office Access 2007; you can also
export a contact record from Access 2007 and save it as a contact in
Outlook 2007.
- Filter and sort data. Office Access 2007 has made it easier to filter
data, bringing clarity to business questions. Different filter
options are available for text, numbers, and date data types. For
example, new filtering options make it easy to filter a date column
for all records in Today, Yesterday, Last Week, Next Month, Future,
Past, and so on. The filtering experience is consistent between
Office Excel 2007 and Office Access 2007 so that you don't need to
learn a new way to find the information they need.
- Work with multivalue fields. Office Access 2007 supports complex data
types, so you can create columns that accept more than one value in a
cell. For example, if you assign a task to more than one person, you
can include both names in the cell. Windows SharePoint Services
technology is compatible with these complex data types to help ensure
data symmetry between the local and Web-based data stores.
- Attach documents and files to your database. Your applications can
hold information that is more interesting and helpful than ever
before. You can attach multiple files--such as photos, documents, or
spreadsheets--to individual records within the data store for easy
reference. If the file isn't a compressed format, Office Access 2007
will automatically compress it for you, saving hard disk space.
- Interactive forms design. Office Access 2007 features a what-you-see-
is-what-you-get (WYSIWYG) forms design interface. You can design and
modify the form layout in real time on the screen--and preview your
form as you build it. With the WYSIWYG design interface, you can
build forms very quickly, spending more time doing the work and less
time on design and formatting issues.
- Rich text. Bold text? Italics? No problem. Office Access 2007
provides rich text support for data stored in tables.
* Share Tracked Information with Others
Office Access 2007 enables you to gather information easily and make it
available to others with more security and flexibility.
- Collect data using Office Outlook 2007. Office Access 2007 simplifies
the process of collecting information from others. It builds the data
collection form automatically using Microsoft Office InfoPath 2007 or
HTML in the body of an e-mail message. You can send the form to
recipients using e-mail addresses from your Office Outlook 2007
Contacts folder or from Office Access 2007. Office Outlook 2007
processes the incoming forms and saves the data in your Office Access
2007 data store--effectively updating the data in your tracking
application immediately without retyping.
- Web collaboration with Windows SharePoint Services. Web sites based
on Windows SharePoint Services provide a place where your team can
communicate, share documents, and work together on a project. With
Office Access 2007, you can publish your Access 2007 files to
libraries, or move the application to Windows SharePoint Services,
allowing your team to interact with it easily through the browser.
Forms, reports, and information can be viewed, updated, or deleted
directly on the Windows SharePoint Services site according to the
established permission settings.
- Track Windows SharePoint Services lists with Office Access 2007. For
a richer experience, you can track information on Windows SharePoint
Services lists using the Office Access 2007 client on your computer.
- Work offline with Windows SharePoint Services lists. Using Office
Access 2007, you can work with Windows SharePoint Services offline.
If you are traveling, for example, you can maintain a local copy of a
Windows SharePoint Services list on your laptop computer, where you
can edit and query the list as though it were any other table in
Office Access 2007. Forms and reports that use the Windows SharePoint
Services list are fully interactive--and Office Access 2007 can later
synchronize the local list with the online list when you bring your
laptop back online.
- Integration with Windows SharePoint Services workflow. Office Access
2007 authors can use business logic created with the workflow support
in Windows SharePoint Services to build collaborative workgroup
applications. Workflow can be used to automatically assign tasks to
other users, report on project status, and help ensure that tasks are
completed on time. All Windows SharePoint Services tasks can be
viewed inside Office Access 2007 or Office Outlook 2007.
- E-mail and RSS notifications. Users can subscribe to e-mail
notifications when records are added, deleted, or changed.
Additionally, Really Simple Syndication (RSS) subscriptions users can
subscribe to list feeds in Office Outlook 2007.
- Mobile connectivity. Windows SharePoint Services lists can be
accessed through mobile phones, so remote users can stay current on
changing business information.
- PDF and XPS support. With Office Access 2007, you can save a report
as a Portable Document Format file (PDF) or in XML Paper
Specification (XPS) format for printing, posting, and e-mail
distribution. By saving your report as a PDF or XPS file, you can
capture report information in an easily distributed form that retains
all of your formatting characteristics yet does not require others to
have Office Access 2007 to print or review your report.
* Create and Adapt Meaningful Reports
Use Office Access 2007 to make sense of complexity by consolidating
information into meaningful reports enabling more informed decision
making.
- Interactive report design mode editing. With new functionality in
Office Access 2007, you can see how data will appear in a report
while you are creating it. Using the new WYSIWYG interface, you can
manipulate the report layout directly while browsing the data in the
report designer, so you don't need to run the report to see how it
looks on the page. This makes it easier to create a great-looking
report and saves you time.
- Interactive report browse. The new report browse mode makes user
reports more accessible. Use CTRL+F to find records, copy the data
into other applications, and edit the data. Using the new filtering
functionality, it is easier to find the information you are looking
for enabling better decision making.
- Group information in reports. The improved Grouping Pane provides a
clear display of data groupings so you can preview changes as you are
applying them to reports. You can easily add totals, subtotals,
counts, and other elements that help you analyze the data. You can
also group the information in one or more layers and add subtotals.
* Manage and Audit Sensitive Information
Office Access 2007 makes it easier for you to meet your information
management needs with improved data transparency in a manageable
environment.
- Improved security. Office Access 2007 includes new and improved
security features--unified trust decisions are integrated with
Microsoft Office Trust Center. Trusted locations make it easy to
trust all databases in security-enhanced folders. Conversely, you can
load an Office Access 2007 application with code or macros disabled
to help provide a safe experience.
- Data auditing. Without requiring IT support, you can easily migrate
data from your local database file to a server with Windows
SharePoint Services which your organization's IT professionals can
manage, help secure, and back up according to your organization's
policies.
- Revision history. New functionality enables you to track records and
see who created, edited, and deleted records. You can also view when
the information was modified and roll back data edits if necessary.
- Permission setting. Using Windows SharePoint Services, you can manage
which users have access to your data. You can assign limited reading
permissions or full editing rights.
- Recycle bin. You can now recover data that was erroneously deleted
using the recycle bin feature in Windows SharePoint Services.
