Step 1: Download start file

Independent Project 7-5 The New York Department of Motor Vehicles wants to extend the functionality of its database. You use Design view to finish building a main form, add a calculated control to concatenate the first and last name, and add header and footer sections. You also add a table as a subform and customize the form to add sections, modify properties, enhance the look of the form, and add a calculated control. This project has been modified for use in SIMnet®.

Skills Covered in This Project • Edit a main form in Design view. • Add Form Header and Form Footer sections to a form. • Edit a control to add an expression to

concatenate fields. • Change the tab order of a control. • Change the border style property of a form.

• Remove the record selector. • Add and edit a control in a form. • Use a table as the subform in the SubForm Wizard. • Use an aggregate function on a subform. • Add a control on a main form that refers to a

control on a subform.
