Exploring Strategies

A good database starts with the task and works backwards: what do your users really have to get done in a day? In this series, we will be creating a database for a video store. We need to list the movies, figure out who bought what, and print a receipt.

Questions: Forms, Tables, and Queries are all Visualization Strategies. What does the user see? Databases also make relationships, or Dependencies. How are the forms, queries and reports linked to the tables?
