Are you tired of things taking too long whilst you are using Microsoft Access?

Do you wish there was a quicker way to add or browse through data instead of using the mouse?

 

Then this latest Microsoft Access Tip is for you!

 

We will tell you about a few of the most useful keyboard shortcuts which can be used to cut the amount of time used to complete certain tasks.

 

Adding new Record: use CTRL & the plus sign (+) to add new records to your Access Database.

 

Deleting the current record: use CTRL & the minus sign (-) to delete the current record being viewed.

 

Undoing any changes: if it is just the current field you want to undo changes for, press the ESC key once. If however, you want to undo any changes made to the entire record then press the ESC key twice.

 

Recalculating fields: pressing the F9 key will recalculate the fields shown in the window.

 

Undo typing: to get rid of any typing, use CTRL & Z.
