A. Lab # : BSBA BIS245A-2
B. Lab 2 of 7 : Skills Development in Visio; Creation of MS Access Database
C. Lab Overview—Scenario / Summary
COs:
1. Given a business situation in which managers require information from a database, determine,
analyze, and classify that information so that reports can be designed to meet the requirements.
2. Given a situation containing entities, business rules, and data requirements, create the
conceptual model of the database using a database modeling tool.
3. Given an existing relational database schema, evaluate and alter the database design for
efficiency.
4. Given an existing database structure demonstrating efficiency and integrity, design the physical
tables.
Scenario:
You have been asked to create a conceptual database model using MS Visio Database Model Diagram
Template. The purpose of this lab is to have you gain experience with the various modeling tools needed
to create a conceptual model (entity relationship diagram) of a database. You will then modify the
model for implementation as a MS Access database. You will create and modify one conceptual model.
You will then create a MS Access database based on the model developed in Visio, creating the
necessary tables and relationships.
Upon completing this lab, you will be able to
1. relying on detailed instructions, add two entities to the existing conceptual model (ERD),
including attribute data types and required field lengths;
2. create a new MS Access database file;
3. using the model from Part A of the lab and relying on detailed instructions; create the first two
tables in the database;
4. use the experience gained in creating the first two tables to add the remaining tables;
5. using the model from Part A of the lab and relying on detailed instructions; create the
relationship between the first two tables in the database; and
6. use the experience gained in creating the first relationship to create the remaining relationships
between the tables.
