No. You can learn either one of them first, or even just learn one of them. There are a lot of things that both can do, so when you do learn one, it can help in learning the other. As they are designed for different jobs, Excel for spreadsheets and Access for databases, it doesn't matter which you learn first.

Why do you need Microsoft Access especially if you have Microsoft Excel?

Microsoft Access is a database application and Microsoft Excel is a spreadsheet application, so they are two different kinds of application. There are things that both can do, but if you want to create a proper database, then Access is better than Excel. It has far more facilities for working with databases than Excel does. Because of that, it is simpler to do lots of things in Access than in Excel. If you want to create a spreadsheet, then that is what Excel is used for, though you can do a lot of things Excel does in Access. If you already have Excel and want to create databases, then you can, but you won't be able to do the really sophisticated things that Access can do and which a really good database needs, such as queries, reports, relationships etc. If you want a really good database that can do those things, then you need Access.

Why use Ms access to create databases and why not use Microsoft Excel?

Access is a database. Excel is a spreadsheet. Both are useful to displaying data systematically, but a database is enormously more flexible. Access is a relational database, which is even more flexible than an ordinary database and permits the data to be manipulated in many ways. +++ It's not "instead of" but "both" - using whichever is the better for the given work. ' It does depend on your purposes. Excel is by far the better if you need only a single table, or if you need to embed a lot of mathematical formulae in the spread-sheet - though MS has ruined what had been its nearly-good graph routines. A database table looks like a spread-sheet page, but it lacks the rapid copying functions that are valuable features in Excel.


Does MS Access require MS Office to run?

No. MS Access is a component of MS Office, but you do not need the other applications (e.g. Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.) to run Access. However, there are many shared resources between MS Access and other MS Office applications. Obviously, if you remove (uninstall) MS Excel from your MS Office collection and delete all your spreadsheets, you will not be able to import Excel data to Access.

How is access better than Excel?

You can't really compare them, as they are for doing two different jobs. Access is for creating databases. Excel is for creating spreadsheets. It is possible to do simple databases in Excel, but Access is better at doing databases, so that is one way you would say Access is better. However, Excel is better for doing calculations and though you can do a lot of calculations in Access, Excel is better in that area. So you pick which one is suited to whatever you need to do.

How easy is Excel to learn for a novice?

It is not difficult to get started. Excel is a very powerful application, with a large range of capabilities. However, it can be used for very basic things, like simple mathematics. You don't necessarily need to be good at mathematics to use Excel, as it will do the calculations for you. You just need to know what it is what you want to do. So you can start off doing very simple things with Excel. There are plenty of online resources, books, CDs and other things you can use to start learning it. There are lots of introductory courses for people wanting to learn Excel. Check in your area. Having someone who knows how to use Excel show you how to do so is the best, whether that is a tutor on a course or just a friend or family member.


Does Microsoft have to be running for Excel to work?

If you mean a Microsoft operating system, such as XP or Vista or Windows 7, then on an IBM PC, it does need to be running before Excel can run. You can also get Excel for other types of computers that do not use a Windows operating system, such as an Apple computer, and Excel can run on those. So it depends on the type of computer and the version of Excel.
