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.
Is there a similar program to Microsoft Access?
There are many database programs available. Oracle is one very well known one. You can get some free ones, like those that come with Open Office and Star Office. Microsoft Excel has databasing capabilities, if you know enough about Excel to use it for that purpose, although it is not designed to be primarily a database.
