Hello and Welcome to excel to access

Hello and greetings for the day.

Interaction with many of my friends and personal experiences pushed me start this blog to teach data crunchers, students and many MIS generators to move them from using excel to a better and powerful tool named Ms access, which helps to automate redundant tasks and produce error free reports, data reports in an efficient way.
I myself have used ms access to automate some of tasks for data analysis, report generation and to solve problems pertaining to huge data files.
Through this blog I would like to teach the basics of Ms access which can be used day in day out to solve reporting, MIS reporting and data analysis.

Happy reading and learning.
