    This is a project depicting views on the various computer concepts,

    which have been taught to us as a part of Information Technology

    Course. I have opted for these topics, as these are some of those

    topics, which help in extracting out our creativity and blending it with

    our knowledge of accounts seemed to me.

    First of all, I would like express my immense gratitude towards Mr.

    Shashank Saxena and Mr. Satish Bhatia our ITT instructors who

    suggested us the relevant topics and took all the pains for us to make

    the course comprehendible for us.

    COMPUTER

    FUND MENT LS

    A computer is an electronic device- a flexible machine that canmanipulate data. It is a programmable machine. The two principalcharacteristics of computer are: It responds to a specific set of instructions in a well-defined

    manner.It can execute a prerecorded list of instructions (a program).

    Modern computers are electronic and digital. The actual machinery --wires, transistors, and circuits -- is called hardware; the instructionsand data are called software.All general-purpose computers requirethe following hardware components:

    Memory: Enables a computer to store, at least temporarily, dataand programs.

    Mass storage Device: Allows a computer to permanentlyretain large amounts of data. Common mass storage devicesinclude disk drives and tape drives.

    Input Device : Usually a keyboard and mouse, the input

    device is the conduit through which data and instructions entera computer.

    Output Device :A display screen, printer, or other device thatenables us to see what the computer has accomplished. Outputcan be meaningful information or gibberish, and it can appear ina variety of forms- as binary numbers, as characters, aspictures, and as printed pages.

    Central Processing Unit (CPU):The heart of the computer,this is the component that actually executes instructions.

    Hardware: - The term hardware refers to the physical parts of thecomputer. Computer hardware is versatile-but it does depend on thecomputer program you use.

    Software: -Software is the set of instructions (also called a program)that guides the hardware through its job. Software constitutes the

    logical programs that handle the different components of your PC andhelp them to interact with one another in hassle-free manner.

    Software has three types:

    System software: computer needs system software to function.System software integrates the computers hardware componentsand provides tools for day to day maintenance tasks . Example :MS-DOS, UNIX, MICROSOFT

    WINDOWS 98, SYSTEM 7 ETC.

    Application software: Application software turns the computerinto a tool for a specific task, such as writing. Not all applicationprograms will prove useful to us. Some application programs arespecial purpose program, which perform a specific task for a singleprofession. Example: MS WORD, MS EXCEL, TALLY ETC.

    Utility software: These are the software used to make systemwork efficiently and progressively these software are Antivirus

    Software and System Management Software

    Data: Computers transform the data into information. Data is the rawmaterial, information is the processed data. A useful model describesthe relationship between data and information which is system model.

    People: Knowledgeable people are called power users. Computerprofessionals have taken intermediate and advanced courses aboutcomputers.

    Procedures: Procedures are the steps we must follow to accomplisha computer related task. Part of the users computer literacy is knowncommon procedures. Examples, ATM, VCR, etc

    Microsoft word

    Before the development of personal computers and word processing

    software, documents were on typewriters. Early word processors

    consisted of two parts: an editor and a formatter. For example, we

    could see the code in the text that would make it bold or underline,

    but the text wouldnt appear bold or underlined until we printed it on

    paper. In other words, it was difficult to visualize the final document.

    Later word processors, such as the popular WordPerfect 5.1,

    combined the editor and formatter and concealed the codes so that

    they were not visible on the screen (although the user had the option

    of revealing the code when desired). For example, bold or underlined

    words appeared on the screen in different colors, page document, as

    it would appear, before us actually printed it; however, we could not

    view it in this format while editing.

    Today most word processors combine the editor and the formatter in

    such a way that the page would appear on the screen in a similarfashion as it would be printed. Two such most popular word

    processors are WordPerfect and Microsoft Word. In Word the

    formatting codes are completely hidden; WordPerfect allows the user

    to view the codes if desired.

    FEATURES OF WORD PROCESSORS :-

    Word Wrap: This function allows us to type continuously without

    thinking about where one line will end and the next one begins.

    Unlike a typewriter, which requires us to press a return bar or key

    to advance to the beginning of a new line, a word processor does

    this automatically. As we approach the end of a line, the computer

    determines whether the word we are typing is extending beyond

    the margin; if so, it hunts backward until it finds a separator- a

    space or a hyphen. It then moves the block of text following the

    separator in the next line. When we want to begin the new

    paragraph, we simply press the Enter key.

    Deleting Text: Word processor allows us to make corrections by

    deleting characters, words, or larger blocks of text which we want

    to delete. The Delete key and Backspace keys are used for this

    purpose.

    Inserting Text: In word processor, we can simply move to the

    insertion point to the proper place and insert the omitted letter; all

    other characters will move to the right to make room for it. We can

    insert as many characters as we like, including complete words

    and sentences.

    Page 12 of 65

    Moving and copying Text: It permits us to move a block of text of

    any size. Without deleting or retyping, we can move a sentence, a

    paragraph or an entire section of text from one location to another.

    We can also copy a block of text so that it appears in two or more

    locations without retyping.

    Spell Check: We can even check our spellings. The computer

    underlines the word if it is not available in its dictionary. We can

    then correct it ourselves or ask the computer to help us find the

    correct spelling. Or, we may ignore it if the word is correct but not

    recognized by the computer.

    Alignment:We can align the text in various ways. We can indent

    the first line of the paragraph or the entire paragraph. We can

    create a hanging indent, where all lines of a paragraph are

    indented except the first one. We can also create lists with bullets

    or numbered lists besides each item. Text can be automatically

    centered by a word processor. It can also be justified at either the

    right or the left margin; or it can be full justified so that both right

    and left margins are even. We can also create multiple columns

    with shorter lines in newspapers and magazines.

    Tables: With word processor, we can create an attractive table

    customized to our needs. We can adjust the size and number of

    rows and columns, the styles of separator lines and borders, the

    justification of the text within the table, and other features.

    File Management: To enable us to organize and store our

    documents the word processor includes ways to save text in a file

    and to load text from a file. There is some flexibility in the load and

  • 8/11/2019 ree.docx

    13/65

    Page 13 of 65

    the save operations, which enables we to save or load a document

    in a different format in case we want to use it on a different word

    processor.

    Loading Word

    To load word we follow the steps as under:

    1. Click on Startbutton in the left hand corner of the taskbar.

    2. Select the Programs menu.

    3. Select Microsoft Office.4. Select Microsoft Word.

    Mail Merge

    Mail merge is the term used for merging a list of names andaddresses with a standard letter to create personalized letters. It

    s a very useful technique whenever you want to send the same

    letter to several people.

    Mail merge consists of two parts:-

    Main document

    Data source

    Ultimately after completing the process the result will be shown on

    the screen.

    Macro

    A Macro is a single instruction that performs several different

    commands in a sequence determined by the user, and is triggered

    when we run it. Most tasks that we perform on a regular basis can be

    made into macros.

  • 8/11/2019 ree.docx

    19/65

    Page 19 of 65

    We create a macro by recording a series of actions or by writing the

    instructions in a special format. Since the sequence of actions is

    important, we need to plan the macro carefully before we record it.

    Commands used to record, run and modify macros are located on the

    Tools menu.

    RECORDING A MACRO

    To record a macro, we simply type the keystrokes and select the

    commands we want the macro to execute. As we record the macro,

    each action is translated into programming code, which we can later

    view and modify.Steps to record a Macro:

    To begin recording, we select Toolsoption on the MenuBar.

    1.We click on Macrosfrom the drop down menu.

    2.From the Macrosub menu select Record a New Macro.

    Recording a Macro

    3. We type the name of our Macro under the head Macro Name

    and click OK.

    4.We may also assign the Macro to a toolbar or shortcut keys.

    5. To assign it to Toolbar we click on ToolbarsthenOK and

    select Commands tab. From under the commands head, we

    click on the Macro we want to record and then click Close to

    start recording.

    6. And to assign a Macro to a shortcut key, we click on Keyboard,

    thenOK, then we select the Macro we are recording and type

    the shortcut key we want to assign under the head Press new

    shortcut keyand then click Assign.

    7. We select commands as we would normally do.

    8. After finishing, we click on Stopbutton on the Stop Recording

    toolbar. The stop recording toolbar appears when we are

    recording a macro.

    RUNNING A MACRO

    After we have created a Macro, to perform the similar type of task

    once again we can simply run our Macro.

    1. To run a Macro, we simply click on ToolsMenu. Select Macros

    from the drop down menu and then Macros.

    2. We select the Macro we want to run and click Run. We see

    that the work has been done on the click of a button.

    3. If we had assigned a shortcut key to the Macro, we just need topress that particular shortcut key and our work is done.

    4. If we had assigned the Macro to a toolbar, an icon appears on

    the screen clicking on which we can run the Macro.

    Microsoft excel

    Microsoft Excel is a spreadsheet program that gives us support for

    XML and new features that make it easier to analyze and share

    information. A spreadsheet uses the idea of a large sheet of paper

    into which numbers are entered. A spreadsheet is a highly interactive

    computer program that consists of a collection of rows and columns

    that are displayed on screen in a scrollable window. The intersection

    of each row and column is called a cell. A cell can hold a number, atext string or a formula that performs a calculation using one or other

    cells. The page or spreadsheet as it is known, is a grid, referenced

    by letters horizontally and numbers vertically. Each square or cell is

    referenced by a letter and a number, A1 being the top left column.

    Excel also allows for multiple sheets, so a spreadsheet could be split

    over several pages, say one page for input, one page for calculations

    and another for output. This collection of pages is known as a

    Workbook.

    Worksheet is a grid made up of horizontal rows and vertical columns.

    The worksheet contains 8192 rows and 256 columns. Each

    intersection of a row and a column forms a cell, in which data can be

    stored.

    FEATURES OF MS EXCEL :-

    Microsoft Excel is developed on the GUI concept. It is the most

    comprehensive spreadsheet. The features of Microsoft Excel are

    listed below:

    Worksheet and Graphics: This feature includes extremely

    powerful calculating features. It is also possible to present

    graphical data using Excel 2003.

    Data lists and Databases: Several useful functions are available

    for working with data that are listed in a tabular form. Functions

    are also available for evaluating values, combining data and so on.

    Data exchange with other applications: Excel takes advantage

    of the Window Environment which applies to the DDE (Dynamic

    Data Exchange) and OLE (Object Linking and Embedding)

    concepts within Excel and between Excel and other window

    applications.

    Workbooks: Excel works with a consistent file concept. All data is

    gathered in workbooks. These workbooks store current status of

    the workspace, along with all currently opened files and the

    settings selected for them.

  • 8/11/2019 ree.docx

    Loading excel

    To load excel we follow the steps as under:

    1. Click on Startbutton in the left hand corner.

    2. Select the Programs menu.

    3. Select Microsoft Office.

    4. Select Microsoft Excel.

    On starting Excel, a blank workbook is opened. This workbook has

    several worksheets and by default, sheet1 is selected. Excel provides

    options in the menu and the user can select the appropriate options

    to perform an operation.

    Cell referencing

    Cell referencing is the method by which we refer to a cell or a series

    of cells in a formula. A reference identifies a cell or a range of cells

    on a worksheet and tells Microsoft Excel where to look for the values

    or data we want to use in a formula. With references, we can usedata contained in different parts of a worksheet in one formula or use

    the value from one cell in several formulas. We can also refer to cells

    on other sheets in the same workbook or to other workbooks.

    References to cells in other workbooks are called links.

    Cell Referencing can be done in following ways:

    Referencing cells in the same worksheet

    It is possible to use cell references on the same worksheet.To

    reference the value stored in a single cell, enter its coordinates as a

    function argument. For example, to have the data in cell G4 (here 10)

    appear in another cell (here G7), enter =G4 into the cell G7 as shown

    below. As a result of this the value appearing in the cell G4 will

    appear in the cell G7 as well and whenever we alter the value in the

    cell G4 the value in the cell G7 will automatically change.

  • 8/11/2019 ree.docx

    31/65

    Page 31 of 65

    Then, for example, we want to add the data in different cells we use

    the = sign and click on the different cells the values of which have to

    be added using the + sign after each referring each cell.

  • 8/11/2019 ree.docx

    32/65

    Page 32 of 65

    Referencing cells in different worksheets in the same workbook

    We can use cell referencing to refer to cells which are on different

    worksheets in the same workbook. For this we put the = sign on the

    cell on the cell on which we want the data and switch over to the

    sheet from which the data is required. We place the pointer on that

    particular cell the data of which we wish to enter into the other sheet

    and press Enter.

    If we want to put in a formula we can use this method. Cell

    Referencing is very useful while using formula. For example, we

    want to calculate 5% commission on sales; we put = sign and click on

    the cell on which the figure of sales is written and then we use the

    formula as shown below. While putting the formula if we had not

    used cell referencing; if the figure of sales changes we will have to

    edit our formula every single time which becomes very cumbersome.

    But by using cell referencing our work becomes much easier. Once,

    we put the formula using cell referencing, as soon as the figure of

    sale changes the commission changes automatically. When we put

    the formula using cell referencing the name of the sheet and its cell

    numbers appears in the formula bar in place of the figure required

    and on pressing the Enter key the result appears on the particular

    cell.

  • 8/11/2019 ree.docx

    33/65

  • 8/11/2019 ree.docx

    34/65

    Page 34 of 65

    For this, while referring to another workbook we write the name of the

    workbook in square brackets and then mention the name of the sheet

    and the cell number and press enter. The total sales i.e. sales plus

    commission appears on the cell. Every time a workbook is opened

    that contains cell references (or links) to other workbooks you will be

    prompted as to whether you want to update these links.

    Excel uses three types of cell references to create formulas:

    1. Relative Cell References

    2. Absolute Cell References

    3. Mixed Cell References

    Relative Cell References

    This is the most widely used type of cell reference in formulas.

    Relative cell references are basic cell references that adjust and

    change when copied or when using Autofill. Cell references in

    spreadsheet are relative by default. This means that they a

    relationship to other cells. When the formula containing relative

    references (eg. A2, B2) is copied to a different cell; it maintains its

    relative reference. The formula recognizes where the cells it refers to

    are, in relation to its own cell, and changes the cell references in the

    formula to keep the same positional relationship.

    For example, formula = A2*B2 is placed in cell C2 (the cost multiplied

    by the number bought gives the amount of money received.)

  • 8/11/2019 ree.docx

    35/65

    Page 35 of 65

    The formula is then copied from cell C2 to cell C3.

    The following process happens:

    The formula recognizes that it has been placed in a different cell (C3).

    It looks at the relative positions of all the cells involved in the

    original formula in cell C2 (i.e. cell A2 was two cells to the left of

    C2; cell B2 was one cell to the left of C2)

    To maintain the relative positions of the cells, it changes its

    formula to reference the cell two to its left and the cell immediately

    to its left.

    Because it has been moved from C2 to C3, these cells change to

    A3 and B3 and the formula becomes = A3*B3.

  • 8/11/2019 ree.docx

    36/65

    Page 36 of 65

    Finally, the formula from cell C2 is copied to cell C4. The formula

    changes to A4*B4, once again referencing the same two relative

    cells, as in the original formula.

    Absolute Cell Reference

    An absolute cell reference is one that refers to a constant cell and

    therefore overrides relative referencing. Absolute cell referencing is

    particularly useful for formula that are being copied from one cell to

    another and are required to reference a constant cell. Inserting a

    dollar ($) sign infront of the cell reference (eg. $A$2) will make that

    cell absolute and ensure that the formula always references it.

    For example, The cost is always the same but the number bought

    changes. The money in column references the cost and the number

    bought. It needs to refer just one (constant) cost cell (A2) and to

    eight different number bought cells (B2 to B9). The picture below

    shows the formula in cell C2, which needs to reference cell A2 and

    cell B2.

    The cost (A2) can be an absolute reference ($A$2), but the number

    bought cells need to remain relative. Now, as shown below, the

    formula has been copied from cell C2 to cell C3. It now needs to

    reference cell A2 and cell B3. Here, the absolute referenced cost cell

  • 8/11/2019 ree.docx

    37/65

    Page 37 of 65

    (A2) has remained the same but the number bought cell has retained

    its relative reference.

    If the formula in the cell C2 is again copied in the cell C4; the

    absolute cell A2 remains the same but the cell B2 changes to cell B4,

    keeping its relative reference.

    Summary of absolute cell reference uses:

    $A1

    Allows the row reference to

    change, but not the column

    reference.

    A$1

    Allows the column reference

    to change, but not the row

    reference.

    $A$1Allows neither the column nor

    the row reference to change.

    Pivot table

    Accountants have long known the value of Pivot Tables. But they're a

    great data analysis tool for management, too. Pivot Tables allow you

    to create multidimensional data views by dragging and dropping

    column headings to move data around.

    To begin, you first need raw data to work with. PivotTables are

    especially well-suited for taking enormous amounts of data and

    summarizing that data into useful reports.

    1. We click on Data

    option on the Menu

    Bar.2. Select Pivot Tablesand Pivot Chart Report.

    In the example below, the marketing department for a company

    has tabulated the results of four different types of marketing

    campaigns, which were conducted in different locations during

    different months of the year.

    It's important to note that as presented, the data is not easy to read.

    We can easily make a few obvious observations pertaining to this raw

    data. For example, we see an October marketing direct mail

    campaign conducted in the Atlanta market resulted in 455 redeemed

    coupons. However, in its current format we cannot see summary

    statistics at a glance, such as the overall success of direct mail

    campaigns, October marketing efforts, or Atlanta marketing efforts.

    This is where Pivot Tables can help.

    The PivotTable Wizard :-

    To create a PivotTable, place the cursor anywhere in the data area

    (assuming the data is contiguous), and then start the PivotTable

    wizard from the data menu as shown below.

    The Pivot Table wizard walks us through the process of creating an

    initial Pivot Table. While there are many advanced options available

    to us, in this example, we will simply click the Finish button to create

    a quick Pivot Table. The results are that Excel creates a blank

    PivotTable, and the user must then drag and drop the various fields

    from the Pivot Table field list onto the appropriate column, row, or

    data section.

    Dragging and Dropping Data :-

    As we drag and drop these items, the resulting report is displayed "on

    the fly." Presented below are examples of possible reports that could

    be viewed with this data through the Pivot Table format.

    Example Reports :-

    The report in the diagram below shows the total resulting sales for

    each marketing campaign for each of the two months marketing

    campaigns were conducted.

  • 8/11/2019 ree.docx

    42/65

    Page 42 of 65

    The report in the diagram below shows the profit for each marketing

    campaign for each of the two months marketing campaigns were

    conducted.

    In the similar manner, other pivot tables such as cost and quantity

    redeemed can also be generated. We can also filter this information

    according to our requirements i.e. we can select the city or the month

    or the campaign for which the information is required. This makes

    our task easy and simplifies the data.

    For example, if we want to view the profit of New York City only, we

    will click the arrow the arrow beside city option and select New York

    and the details of only New York City are displayed.

    We click on this arrow to select the city

    A table is a collection of data about a specific topic, such as students

    or contacts. Using a separate table for each topic means that you

    store that data only once, which makes your database more efficient,

    and reduces data-entry errors.

    Tables organize data into columns (called fields) and rows (called

    records).

  • 8/11/2019 ree.docx

    58/65

    59/65

    Page 59 of 65

    3. Define each of the fields in your table.

    Under the Field Name column, enter the categories of

    your table.

    Under Data Type column, enter the type you want for you

    categories.

    The attribute of a variable or field that determines what

    kind of data it can hold. For example, in a Microsoft

    Access database, the Text and Memo field data types

    allow the field to store either text or numbers, but the

    Number data type will allow the field to store numbers

    only. Number data type fields store numerical data that

    will be used in mathematical calculations. Use the

    Currency data type to display or calculate currency

    values. Other data types are Date/Time, Yes/No, Auto

    Number, and OLE object (Picture).

    QUERIES

    INTRODUCTION :-

    A query in access is a way of getting at the information stored in a

    database. You specify the criteria for the information you want to see

    and ask ACCESS to retrieve it. Most query returns a datasheet called

    a RECORDSET or DYNASET containing the appropriate information.

    There may arise situations where we require information relating to a

  • 8/11/2019 ree.docx

    61/65

    Page 61 of 65

    specific condition or we need to change the selected data in various

    ways. Queries are used for this purpose.

    SELECT QUERIES:-

    This is the most commonly used type of query. This query is used to

    select the necessary fields from a table based on certain criteria and

    to display the results in the data sheet view. The select query can

    also be used to query records from more than a single table.

    STEPS FOR CREATION OF SELECT QUERY:-

    In the database window click the queries tab and then

    click new. In the new query dialogue box click design view

    and then click ok.

    Double click the name of each object you want to add to the

    query, and the click close.

    Add fields to the query by dragging the field names from the

    field list to the design grid. For more information on how to add

    fields, click.

    Refine your query by entering criteria, adding a sort order,

    creating calculated fields, computing the sum, average, count,

    or another type of total on the data it retrieves, or otherwise

    modifying the querys design.

    To save the query, click savebutton on the toolbar, enter a

    name that follows Microsoft access object-naming rules, and

    then click ok.

    To see the results of the query, click run(!) button on the toolbar

    otherwise select query run.

  • 8/11/2019 ree.docx

    62/65

    Page 62 of 65

    CROSS TAB QUERY:-

    This type of query should be used only for specific purposes such as

    to group data into categories and display values in a spreadsheet like

    format with summary totals. These queries can also be used to

    compare values and obtain summary data.

    STEPS FOR CREATION OF CROSSTAB QUERY:-

    Crosstab queries allow us to create cross-tabulate data in a row

    by column manner.

    Comments with the query design window and select the tables

    that have to be used.

    Select query Crosstab

    Select the appropriate row and column heading in the crosstab

    cell which should contain a group by in its total cell. In place of

    a field name, we can use expressions to group values together.

    Choose value in the crosstab cell for the field that needs to be

    summarized. Then in the total cell for the field choose the type

    of summary required.

    Check not shown in the crosstab cell for those fields to group

    by additional fields without displaying them in the results.Click on the query view toolbar button to view the results.

    UPDATE QUERY:-

  • 8/11/2019 ree.docx

    63/65

    Page 63 of 65

    Update query makes global changes to a group of records in one or

    more tables. Update queries allow us to change records or group of

    records very quickly.

    STEPS FOR CREATION OF UPDATE QUERY:-

    Create a query, selecting the tables or queries that include the

    records yiou want to update and the fields you want to use for

    setting criteria.

    In query design view click the arrow next to the query type on

    the toolbar and then click update query. Drag from the field list

    to query design grid the fields you want to update or you want

    to specify criteria for.

    In the update to cell for the fields you want to update type the

    expression or value you want to use to change the fields.

    To see the list of records that will be updated click view on the

    toolbar.

    APPEND QUERY:-

    An append query adds a group of records from one or more tables to

    the end of one or more tables. These queries are specially useful for

    adding old records to the end of the table.

    STEPS FOR CREATION OF APPEND QUERY:-

  • 8/11/2019 ree.docx

    64/65

    Page 64 of 65

    Select query Append query from the menu. An append

    dialogue box appears on the screen.

    Skip the next step if the table chosen is from the same

    database, else if it is to be appended to a table in a different

    database, click on another database, press tab, and specify the

    drive, folder, and name of that database.

    Choose the target table from the dropdown list of tables and

    click ok.

    Add tables and set criteria to select the records that have to be

    appended in the query design window.Click on the query view toolbar button or select view datasheet

    view to preview the changes.

    Return to the query design window to run the append query and

    then click on the run toolbar button.

    DELETE QUERY:-

    Delete queries allow us to delete a group of records that meet

    specific search criteria in bulk. The procedures for setting up a delete

    query depend on whether we are deleting records from a single table

  • 8/11/2019 ree.docx

    65/65

    or from multiple tables that are involved in a one to many

    relationships.
