What about those big icons in the middle of the Access window? As shown in
Figure 1-15, there’s also a big Microsoft Office Online tab in the middle of the
window, with three icons: Customer Service Database, Marketing Projects
Database, and Gradebook Database. Covering everyone from someone in
sales to a school teacher, these templates are also accompanied by a link to
more online templates (see “More on Microsoft Office Online” and the three
links beneath it, also shown in Figure 1-14).
When you click a template category in the left-hand list “From Microsoft
Office Online,” the center area in the workspace changes. It shows the name
of the category you clicked and a series of template icons for that category.
For example, if you click Business, you see the icons shown in Figure 1-15,
where you can pick from different business databases — Assets, Contacts,
Events, Issues, and so on.
