Data types.
Field types in Access (The absolute lowlevel Database engine, just above text files) include:
Text
Number
Yes / No
These fields all have charistica that decide length, decimal spaces, default values and such. Using the correct field types for data, and not just text for it all, will result in faster computing and easier coding.

What are the Access data types and how they are used?
In Access and in databases in general each field in a database table is of a certain data type. The data type determines what type of data a field can hold. A field of the text data type can hold text, a field of the number data type can hold numbers and a field of the data/time data type can hold date and time values.Access actively checks what type of data is entered into a field and Access will disallow the entry of data into a field that doesn't conform to the field's data type. Access won't allow you to put text into a field of the Number data type, for example.So, data types are a way to restrict the entry of data into a field. Internally, the database uses different strategies for the storage and retrieval of different data types.
