How do you save a record in Access?

Question

To save the data, on the Home tab, in the Records group, click Save Record, or press Shift+Enter. You don't have to explicitly save your changes. Access commits them to the table when you move the cursor to a new field in the same row, when you move the pointer to another row, or when you close the form or datasheet.

Does Access save records automatically?

When updating data thru the forms or datasheet views, Access automatically saves data without me hitting save button. This works different than other Microsoft products where if you dont save and close it doesn't automatically save, you get a popup asking whether you want to save or not.

How do I add a record to an existing table in Access?

On the Home tab, in the View group, click View, and then click Design View. On the Design tab, in the Query Type group, click Append. The Append dialog box appears. Next, you specify whether to append records to a table in the current database, or to a table in a different database.

How do you store data in Access?

To store your data, you create one table for each type of information that you track. Types of information might include customer information, products, and order details. To bring the data from multiple tables together in a query, form, or report, you define relationships between the tables.
