Creating the PUBLISHERS Table

Once again, follow the same basic steps listed in the earlier section Section 4.2 to create the PUBLISHERS table. Field definitions for the PUBLISHERS table are shown in Table 4.6.

Once again, there is only a single property that you need to set:

Field Name:

PubID

Property:

Indexed

Value:

Yes (No Duplicates)

Designate PubID as the primary key, and save the table as PUBLISHERS.

Once you’ve finished creating the PUBLISHERS table, you can enter data into it. The PUBLISHERS table contains records for only three publishers; these are shown in Table 4.7.
