Please show me how you did?
Thanks
This assignment consists of two parts. Both parts should be implemented
in the same MS Access Database.
PART 1
Using MS Access:
1. Import data from the attached AcademicSoftware_Data Excel file into a new database as
following:
Table/Entity Name: AcademicSoftware
Attributes:
a. Software ID (Integer, Primary Key)
b. Software Name (Short Text)
c. Software Category (Short Text)
d. Software Price (Currency)
e. Vendor Name (Short Text)
f. Vendor Address (Short Text)
g. Vendor City (Short Text)
h. Vendor State (Short Text)
i. Vendor Zip (Short Text)
j. Vendor Phone (Short Text)
Note: Check the imported table and make sure to delete any unwanted fields (e.g. as Field1 or
FLD11 etc.) that might have been imported.
When you import data, sometimes the source data isnt properly split out into related tables.
To get the most benefit from Access, data needs to be normalized, i.e. separated into different
Tables/Entities, each about one thing, that are related by key pieces of information.
2. Use the Table Analyzer to normalize this imported AcademicSoftware Table as following:
Split the existing AcademicSoftware Table appropriately into the following 3 Entities with
proper relationships defined.
1. Software
2. Vendors
3. Categories
George Mason University, School of Business, MIS303-12 Fall2018 - Dr. Gohar Mukhtar Page 2
Note: Make sure to delete any unwanted entities from the ERD page.
3. Create a query named Affordable Software which shows Software Name, Vendor Name,
Software Price, and Tax (in that order) where the Software Price is $25 or less.
The Tax is to be calculated as 4.5% of the Software Price. Should be formatted with a
currency sign and should carry two decimal places only.
4. Create another query named Avg Price by Category which should only list Software
Categories and their average Software Prices.
