How to Customize a MS Access 2003 Template
Customize a MS Access 2003 template by adding your data, graphics, logos and information. By default, Access templates are pre-formatted to fit many needs. Some users use them without modifying them, but others customize them by adding personalized information. This customization is helpful because the template can reflect your company brand and image instead of a canned template image. Review all components of the downloaded template and decide where and how to customize the template to your preference.
