Definition:
In an Excel database, a record is a row of data that holds all the information about one specific object that has been entered into the database.
Each cell or field in the row contains one item of information.
To ensure that data is entered in the same order for each record, headings are added to the columns included in the record. The column headings are referred to as field names.
Examples: It is important to enter the records of data correctly. Be sure to enter the data for each record into the row in the spreadsheet in the same order every time.
