The data type of a database field determines the possible values that that field can hold. When you create a field in MS Access and assign it the Date/Time data type, than that field can only hold date and time values like 04-11-2008 17:51.
When you assign the Number data type and set the field length to "Long integer" that field can only hold whole numbers.
Text, Number and Date are the most common data types in Access. A more exotic data type is the Attachment data type, which can hold files or the Calculated data type which can hold a formula that calculates a result based on values from other fields.

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.
