Each table in Access should store data related to a specific category-for example, you might store customer information in one table, product information in another, and vendor information in another. The data in different tables should be related via linking fields, thereby avoiding duplication and other problems. See Chapter 3, "Introduction to Database Design," for information on normalizing database tables. Tables store data in columns and rows. Each column is a single data category, or field, and each row constitutes a record, which contains a collection of field entries related to that record.

Application Generally speaking, an application is a program that performs a specific task or set of related tasks, such as Microsoft Word or Access. A database application is a complete set of database objects (tables, queries, forms, reports, macros, modules, and data access pages) that are linked so as to automate a task or set of tasks. The main difference between a simple database (containing many of these same objects) and a true database application is in the programming that automates the application to make it easier to use.
