I am trying to learn Access on my own. I need help with creating a table
from a database file. How do I get started.

Do the following:

1. Start MS Access.
2. Click "Blank Database" in the "New Task" pane at left window.
3. Enter your desired File Name. For example, "myDatabase" and click Create.
4. Your database window will appear with respective Objects group title.
5. Click "Tables" under the Objects group.
6. Click "New" button above Objects group and below Database title.
7. Select "Table Wizard" and click OK.
8. Follow the instruction.

You're on way to create your first table.

Good Luck.

In addition to the other help you are already receiving, be aware that an
Access table is NOT a spreadsheet, even though it looks like one. If you
aren't familiar with "relational database design" or "normalization", plan
to spend some time learning about these before setting up your first
table...
