Best Answer

A table is really just one part of a database. The database consists of other things like the queries and reports. In general we do specifically think of the tables as being the database as that is where the data is stored and tables are central to everything else. As there can be multiple tables and other things as part of the system the term database is used to cover them all as one or as what is called a database management system.

Yes, tables store all the data. Things like the forms, reports and queries are all using data that originally comes from the tables. When you enter data using forms, the data is being stored in the tables. Forms, queries and reports can process data to get information, like getting totals. The underlying source is still the tables.
