Hint: On the Query Tools Design tab, in the Query Type group, click Make Table. 6

7 Make a copy of the Make Discontinued Products Table query and save it as Append Discontinued Products Table. Open the Append Discontinued Products Table query in Design view. Convert the make table query to an append query. The query will append to the Discontinued Products table.

Hint: To make a copy of the query, right-click the query in the Navigation Pane and click Copy. To convert the query, on the Query Tools Design tab, in the Query Type group, click Append. 8

8 Modify the criteria to add the Boston Crab Meat product to the Discontinued Products table, using the SupplierID from the Products table. Remove the criteria related to the Discontinued field. Run the query, save it, and then close it.

10 Modify the criteria to delete the discontinued products, as well as the record for Boston Crab Meat using its SupplierID (Hint: There will be two criteria). Run, save, and close the query.

11 Open the Profit query in Design view and add the LastName field from the Employees table to the last column of the design grid. Run, save, and close the query. 4

12 Use the query wizard to create a crosstab query based on the Profit query that shows total profit by LastName (row heading) and CategoryName (column heading). Name the query Profit_Crosstab.
