You would prefer for the Loan data be presented in order of issue date with the most recent loans listed first.

Next you will use the Maintain Members form to add another loan that was processed for one of the firm’s members.

When you need to navigate to a record quickly, without a large number of clicks with your mouse, you can search specific information in the Search field of the Navigation bar at the bottom of the window. In this case, you are interested in adjusting information for the author with an MemberID of 16 (
Tyler Fletcher).
Use the Navigation bar to search for MemberID
16, and then edit the subform so that the InterestRate is
12.54 instead of
.1899 for the loan with LoanID 47. Close the Maintain Members form.

Reports are used to neatly organize table data or query results into a document for presentation to co-workers and/or supervisors. In this case, you are interested in confirming that the report you created based on the Loans, Officers, and Members query is reflecting the appropriate information before sending it to your supervisor.
Open the Loans, Officers, and Members report and check that the report shows five loans listing
Fully Paid as Loan Status. View the layout of the report in Print Preview. Close the Loans, Officers, and Members report. Open the Loans, Officers, and Members query. Sort the query by LoanOfficer field in ascending order.

You are interested in quickly filtering the data in the Loans, Officers, and Members query based on loan officer. Filtering by selection allows you to select your filtering criteria and apply it to the data. In this case, you would like to see only the loans managed by John Badman.
Use filter by selection to show only the loans managed by the loan officer whose name is
John Badman.

Sorting allows you to display data in various ways including alphabetically (A-Z & Z-A), in ascending order, in descending order, newest to oldest etc. You want to display the query results alphabetically by LoanStatus.
Sort the query by LoanStatus in alphabetical order. Save and close the query.

Now, you are interested in quickly filtering the data in the Loans table based on two different fields. Filtering by form allows you to enter your filtering criteria into a form that is then applied to the data.
Open the Loans table. Use Filter by Form to create a filter that will identify all loans with a term of
36 months that also have an interest rate less than
