Access Data Types
What is it?
Short text, long text, number, date/time, currency, auto-number, yes/no, and attachment types suit different data.
In simple words
- Short text, long text, number, date/time, currency, auto-number, yes/no, and attachment types suit different data.
- Working method: first identify the input or starting state for access data types; then apply the rule or process in a clear order; finally inspect the output, test an edge case, and explain any limitation.
- Example: apply access data types to a small school, home, or software problem and trace the result.
