How to Create a Simple Access Query

Create simple access queries by using the query wizard. The query wizard gives you four types of queries to create. The first option is the Simple Query Wizard. This query lets you pick the table and fields you want in your query. Once this information is specified, you are prompted to save the query. The results of the query are displayed in the datasheet view. This query can be printed, saved or added to reports for further analysis.
