A collection of records that share the same fields is
called a table because this kind of information can easily be presented
in table format: each column represents a field and each row represents
a record. In fact, the word column is synonymous with the word field,
and the word row is synonymous with the word record.
A database can contain more than one table, each with a unique name.
These tables can be related

A recordset is
also a table because it’s a collection of records that share the same
columns. For example, a hockey team roster listing the names and positions
of the players could be called a recordset: it consists of a subset of all
the possible information about the players, including goals, assists,
penalty minutes, and so. |
