Packing Slip

item	Are you AFRAID of DataBases?
contact	Butch Hoffman (GateWay Community College) b.hoffman@gwmail.maricopa.edu
college(s)	GateWay Community College
discipline(s)	General Computer Use
summary	I hope to dispel some of the fears of creating and using databases. Microsoft Access is probably one of the most powerful tools in the Microsoft Office Suite.
details	Learning any database program can be confusing, bewildering and frustrating, all at the same time. I hope to help people learn to use MS Access (we all have it on our computers) and show the value of this wonderful (most of the time) program. If anyone has suggestions to improve this package, please let me know. I will answer questions to the best of my ability. My intent is NOT to create databases for anybody, but to provide guidance to those of you who are interested. If you have a "pet project" that others could be interested in learning, perhaps we could do it as a group endeavor. Thanks, Butch Note!
