Data entry using Forms

The focus of this section is to develop an introductory understanding of building forms for data entry. Forms will be built upon existing database tables using the OpenOffice Base forms wizard. The form will be used to navigate the available data to view the records in the database table. Saving new and altered forms will be discussed along with deleting forms for application maintenance.
