Steps to Perform:
| Step | Instructions | Points Possible |
| 1 | Start Access. Open the file named exploring_a04_grader_a1.accdb. Save the database as exploring_a04_grader_a1_LastFirst. | 0 |
| 2 | Create a form using the Form tool based on the Presenters table. Change the title in the Form Header to Enter/Edit Presenters. | 1.5 |
| 3 | Reduce the field value control widths to approximately half their original size. Delete the subform. | 1.5 |
| 4 | Sort the records by LastName in ascending order. Save the form as Edit Presenters. Close the form. | 1.5 |
| 5 | Open the Location Information form in Layout view. Apply the Stacked Layout control to the form. Save and close the form. | 1.5 |
| 6 | Create a new report based on the Exhibits with Presenters query using the Report Wizard. Select all available fields, choose to view the data by Presenters, ensure that FirstName, LastName is the only grouping level, use Date as the primary sort field in ascending order, accept the default Stepped option, and change the layout to Landscape.
