- Background and Overview
Recall that you are the Access database administrator for the marketing and documentation departments of companies in the software and networking business. Taking the example discussed in this lesson a bit further, you need to create a query that includes the Projects and Hours tables. Select the ProjectDescription, DateWorked, and a calculated field. You will modify the Caption property of the calculated field to something other than the name of the field.
