Quiz Comments (1)
question 5 is ambiguous (collection of related information)
since a record is a collection of information about one
specific person or thing that is all related (ie a person's
name, address, phone number are all related) while a field
is a category of unrelated information (ie one person's name
is not related to another person's name)
question 6 is wrong since database programs are limited by
the amount of information stored on a computer by the amount
of memory available.
question 16 implies that "search" means sort while question
19 tells us that "search" means filterposted by:bradmarshall 1690 days ago
