  2. CREATING A DATABASE FROM A TO Z Menus, Forms, Reports What do you need to put in the main menu? Which options will you put on each form? How will you pass from form to form? Which reports do you need to print? Warning the user When do you need “are you sure? Yes/Cancel” forms? When do you need required fields? Which fields might need a warning involving conditional macro? Conditional Macro: We can arrange so that a macro runs only if a certain condition is met. For example, if the minimum salary is 330.000.000 TL, if the user enters a salary lower than this, he can be warned with a message. N.

  3. CREATING A DATABASE FROM A TO Z Example: A health center database Concept: Bilkent Health Center wants to keep patient information in a database. * When the patient comes for the first time, he/she fills out a form stating personal information (ID, name, dept, address, phone, etc) * Each time the patient visits, the doctor fills out a form (the date of visit, diagnosis, medication, medical report if necessary, follow up date if necessary). The doctor also needs to see the details of any previous visits of this patient. * The health center keeps the personal information for each doctor * Doctors get a base salary. In addition, they get paid for each patient they see. N. Fenmen - CAA292 Database Applications for Business - 2003 - 2004 Spring
