title: Creating user-friendly databases with Microsoft Access.
abstract: Data entry can be tedious and is fraught with potential for errors that affect study findings. Researchers can minimise entry errors and streamline data entry by using some of the popular software packages on the market. Joanne Kraenzle Schneider and colleagues describe one way to create a user-friendly database that minimises entry errors by using Microsoft (MS) Access.
