Computer ScienceChapter 11: Using Forms in Access
Record Source
A form's table or query determines available records and fields; a filtered query can limit the task.
Learning objectives
- Define and explain record source in clear language.
- Use the important technical terms accurately.
- Describe the working process in the correct order.
- Apply the concept to a realistic computing example.
- Test or evaluate the result and state a limitation.
Definition
A form's table or query determines available records and fields; a filtered query can limit the task.
Important terms
- Record source
- A form's table or query determines available records and fields; a filtered query can limit the task.
- Record
- A form's table or query determines available records and fields; a filtered query can limit the task.
- source
- A form's table or query determines available records and fields; a filtered query can limit the task.
Overview
Learn the concept through terminology and working:
Terminology and Concept
Terminology: use Record source, Record, source precisely. Define each term before using it in an explanation, algorithm, program, or comparison.
Examples A form's table or query determines available records and fields; a filtered query can limit the task.
Working and Application
Working method: first identify the input or starting state for record source; then apply the rule or process in a clear order; finally inspect the output, test an edge case, and explain any limitation.
Examples Example: apply record source to a small school, home, or software problem and trace the result.
CONCEPT — What it means
A form's table or query determines available records and fields; a filtered query can limit the task.
TERMINOLOGY — Words to use
Terminology: use Record source, Record, source precisely. Define each term before using it in an explanation, algorithm, program, or comparison.
WORKING — How it operates
Working method: first identify the input or starting state for record source; then apply the rule or process in a clear order; finally inspect the output, test an edge case, and explain any limitation.
EXAMPLE — Apply it
Example: apply record source to a small school, home, or software problem and trace the result.
In simple words
Do not memorise the name 'Record source' without explaining what information enters, what process occurs, and what result is produced.
