What is a form view in access?

Answer 1

Access forms are much like paper forms; you can use them to enter, edit, or display data. They are based on tables. When using a form, you can choose the format, the arrangement, and which fields you want to display. The "form view" tells access to show you the form created for you to do that above tasks

Answer 2

Forms can be created automatically with the Form Wizard and have fields and labels laid out for you, or you can design them yourself, which you do through Form Design View. While doing it automatically is quicker, it will do it in a very standard way, whereas doing it yourself gives you much more control over how your form looks and works. You can do things that creating it automatically can never do. You can even first create it automatically and then go to Form Design View and make any changes you want to finish it off and do the things the Wizard is not capable of doing. More experienced users will use Form Design View to create and edit their forms.

Answer 3

Different components of Access, like forms, queries, tables and reports, have a Design View. They are the simplest way of going into one of those elements and making your own adjustments. A wizard is a simple way of creating something, but it doesn't always do it exactly the way you want, so Design View gives you more control over what you are doing and lets you fine tune the component you are working on.
