Updating Information in a Table
As you use a database and as it grows, you might discover that errors creep in or that some information becomes out of date.

If an employee has consistently misspelled the same word, you can use the Find and Replace commands on the Edit menu to locate each instance of the misspelled word and replace it with the correct spelling. This command works much like the same commands in Microsoft Office Word or Microsoft Office Excel.
