Forms are more user-friendly than tables for end users. They ensure data integrity and security by allowing controls. When creating forms, conceptually design them first like the database design. Create simple forms by clicking on a table and selecting "Create > Form". For identifier fields like IDs, either delete them from the form or use a dropdown combo box linked to the table to display the meaningful description instead of the ID number. Thoroughly test forms to ensure controls like combo boxes properly update the linked table fields.

1. Creating Forms
Learning Objective:

2. Why Forms?
As the Video just explained:
• Friendly efficient tools for end user
• Tables not friendly to work with
• Forms look better then tables
• Ensures integrity by having control, also gives
security
• Can mimic existing forms

3. Conceptual Design
Just like the database, you will want to conceptually
design the forms. Something like this:
Member Management
First Name: Last Name:
Phone Number:
Address: City:
Post Code:
Have a play now so you know what the forms will
look like

4. Creating simple forms
Click on the table you wish to make a form for
and click create  Form

5. Lets create one for Issues
It should look like this:

6. Decide what you want to do with the ID
Either Delete it or disable it
Problem… No one cares what Member ID 3
means

7. So on a table
John Key is ID 3
But how do we display this on the form

8. Delete the Member ID and add a combo box

9. The wizard will appear
• Click Next, Then click Table:Members
• Figure out the rest

10. You will have a useless dropdown box
Link it to the MemberID in order to make it
useful

11. TEST TEST TEST TEST
Ensure that the combo box changes what is in
the issues table
