[Year 12 IT Apps] ITA sample questions revisited

[Trish Cotter]

Hi Mark;
I think you can also delete, append, join fields and make a new table etc from queries in Access. I'm sure
that the word "query" would need to be explained if it is application specific. I also think you can do
append, delete etc in mySQL??
