Database Systems Practice Test

In a database interface, the ability to modify or remove existing records comes from forms designed for manipulating data. Data manipulation forms are built to edit fields of a selected record and to delete a record when needed. A search form helps you locate the exact items you want to update or delete by filtering or querying the data first. Data entry forms focus mainly on adding new records, reports are read-only views, and a general application development component isn’t specifically tied to editing data. So the combination of data manipulation forms and search forms best covers the tasks of deleting and updating items.
