SOLOMON DATABASE

The steps to creating a database are

1. Define entity classes and primary keys

2. Define relationships among the entity classes

3. Define fields for each relation (file)4. Use a data definition language to

create the database, which is the focus of this Module

SOLOMON DATABASE

In Figure J.1 (p. 2) on the following 3 slides, we’ve recreated the correct database structure from Extended Learning Module C

Revisit Module C if you need a refresher

Creating Solomon’s Database

Data dictionary - contains the logical structure for the information

To create the Solomon Enterprise database:

1. Start Microsoft Access2. Click on Blank Database in the upper

left corner of the screen3. Enter Solomon Enterprises.mdb as

the database name4. Click on Create

Creating Solomon’s Database

Our recommendation: Create a relation (table) in Design view: Must switch from Datasheet View

to Design View Click on View in the upper left

corner and then Design View Enter a table name Use the Design View to enter the

specifications for the table

Creating the Raw Material Relation

Enter the four fields of the Raw Material relation Raw Material ID Raw Material Name QOH Supplier ID

Click on the Raw Material ID row and then the key button to designate Raw Material ID as the primary key

Creating the Bill of Material Relation

We created (in Extended Learning Module C) the Bill of Material relation to eliminate the many-to-many relationship between the Concrete Type and Raw Material relations

Page 15: Extended Learning Module J (Office 2007 Version)

Mod J Web-15

Creating the Bill of Material Relation

The Bill of Material relation has a primary key composed of two fields (composite primary key): Concrete Type Raw Material ID

Composite primary key - consists of the primary key fields from the two intersecting relations

DEFINING RELATIONSHIPS WITHIN SOLOMON’S

DATABASE The final structural task is to

define how all the relations relate to each other

That is, link primary and foreign keys

Foreign key - a primary key of one file (relation) that appears in another file (relation)

Defining Relationships between Relations

To create relationships Click on Database Tools in the

menu area and then click on the Relationships button

Make each relation appear on the palette by highlighting each relation name and clicking on Add

Then click on the Close button

Referential Integrity

Referential integrity ensures consistency. For example, that you don’t put a non-existent Supplier ID into the Raw Material relation

The relationships we set up for referential integrity guard against bad information

Integrity constraints – rules that help ensure the quality of the information

Grouping and Sorting Information

4. Top-level grouping: Allows you to choose ordering. Since we created a query, Access has defaulted to the first field

5. Further grouping: Lets you specify groups within the top grouping of Concrete Type, but we don’t want any further grouping

6. Sorting: Next we have a chance to sort our information
