Microsoft Access 2021 – Retail Activation Key (1 PC)

This listing is for Microsoft Access 2021, Microsoft's relational database application, sold on its own as a one-off purchase for 1 PC. It is aimed at anyone who needs a proper data model for customers, orders, stock, members or interventions without setting up a full SQL server.

What you can build

• Linked tables: a relational model with foreign keys and referential integrity, which removes the duplication typical of spreadsheets.
• Graphical or SQL queries: selection, grouping, joins, update queries and append queries.
• Data-entry forms: clear screens for your users, with controls and validation.
• Printable reports: formatted reports with groupings and totals, exportable to PDF.
• Automation: macros and VBA to turn a database into a business application.
• External sources: tables linked to SQL Server, Azure SQL, ODBC, SharePoint or Excel.

What the 2021 version adds

Access 2021 supports the extended Date/Time data type, with nanosecond precision in line with SQL Server. It also offers better handling of SQL connections, including automatic reconnection, easy access to recently used data sources, a dark mode and improved performance on large databases. It is newer than Access 2016 and is still within Microsoft's security support.
