The Key To The Perfect Database!!!
Getting Organized in the Computer Age
A database is a collection of information, a sort of electronic filing system. Database software provides a way to enter the information, or data, organize it and view it when needed. Databases are effective programs for organizing and manipulating large amounts of data.
Databases are normally organized into fields, records and files. A field is a single piece of data, a record is a set of fields, and a file is a set of records.

Taken together, your name and address fields would be a record. The collection of the records of all the people on the street would be a file.
