                          Description 
                          Microsoft Access: Level 4 is for students who have 
                          a thorough understanding of the basic and advanced user 
                          features of the Access program, and are interested in 
                          developing introductory-level administrator skill sets. 
                          Students will extend their Access skills to create and 
                          implement switchboard forms, to develop data access 
                          pages that include advanced controls, to protect that 
                          information using security protocols, and to make your 
                          data more accessible and portable. Additionally, students 
                          will take the next step up to the world of VBA programming. 
                          This course is also for the student who may be working 
                          in a multi-user environment and will need to adapt Access 
                          applications to the environment.
