Note: There is no “insert”
query in Access; we assume
this means an “append”
query.
We optimized an index in a
table, which will also optimize
objects that are based on that
table.
There are other ways to optimize
queries, as well, that aren't really
specific to the query, such as
selecting the correct field types
to use the smallest appropriate
data type, and creating
relationships
between tables--both of which
are done in other places in the
book that don't necessarily have
anything to do with queries.

We are using the skill of
grouping data in a report as a
“modify” skill.
Subforms and synchronizing
forms is covered conceptually
in Tutorial 5; the Subreport
control is covered in end-oftutorial practice material in
Tutorial 6.
