What is the use of form in ms access

Forms in Access are like display cases in stores that make it easier to view or get the items that you want. Since forms are objects through which you or other users can add, edit, or display the data stored in your Access desktop database, the design of your form is an important aspect.

There's a lot you can do design-wise with forms in Microsoft Access. You can create two basic types of forms −

• Bound forms
• Unbound forms

Bound Forms

Let us now understand what Bound Forms are −

• Bound forms are connected to some underlying data source such as a table, query, or SQL statement.
• Bound forms are what people typically think of when they think of the purpose of a form.
• Forms are to be filled out or used to enter or edit data in a database.
• Examples of bound forms will typically be what users use to enter, view or edit data in a database.

Unbound Forms

Let us look into Unbound Forms −

• These forms are not connected to an underlying record or data source.
• Unbound forms could be dialog boxes, switch boards, or navigation forms.
