For this project, you enhance the functionality of a database for Magnificent Meals. You append records
from an Excel file to the Customers table; export to XML the data and structure from a query; use mail
merge to generate a feedback letter to send to select customers; and create a custom Navigation pane
to enhance the functionality of the database. Finally, you encrypt the database with a password and
create a PDF file of the database table documentation. You use OneDrive and Word Online to customize
and share a Word
file.
