Microsoft Access is a relational database management system designed for home and small business use. It allows users to create and manage databases with tables to efficiently store data about different topics only once and reduce errors. Users can create tables with fields and data types, forms to graphically represent and manipulate table data, and reports to present that data in a printed format tailored to their needs.
