Finding and Replacing Data
l Locating a particular value, one record, or a group of related records is not difficult with a small database.
l If the database is large, finding a particular record or value can be tedious.
l You can scroll through a database to find data or use the Find command to quickly locate information in a very large table.

l Use the Replace All button in the Find and Replace dialog box to change all matching entries automatically.
l Only use the Replace All option when you are confident about making all replacements without reviewing them—you cannot undo Replace All.
Queries
l A query is a question that you ask about your database.
l It looks for data in your tables, similar to the Find command, but it can return multiple records at one time.
– When you create a query, you must identify the fields you want to see.
– You can select specific fields that you want to include in the query and exclude all other fields.
