'Creating Views
' ------------------------
'1) Simple View:
	CREATE VIEW TEST AS
	SELECT * FROM <table>;
' A) How TO USE this view:
	SELECT * FROM TEST;
'2) More Advanced Views:
	CREATE VIEW TEST_1 AS
	SELECT * FROM <table> 
	WHERE <field> = <value>;
' A) How TO USE this view:
	SELECT * FROM TEST_1;
'-------------
'
	CREATE VIEW COMP (<field1>, <field2>) AS
	SELECT * FROM <table>
	WHERE <field> = <value>;
'
' A) How TO USE this view:
	SELECT * FROM COMP;
'------------------
'
	CREATE VIEW ENVE (NAME, ADDRESS) AS
	SELECT FIRST_N + " " + LAST_N, ADDRESS + " " + CITY + ", " + STATE
	FROM CUSTOMERS;
'
' A) How TO USE this view:
	SELECT * FROM ENVE
'
'*******************************
'3) Updating Views IS pretty much the same thing AS updating a table. A view in SQL could be compared TO a "query"
' IN access.

very nice work, I have a question how 
would I use a view and have it ask you 
to input some numbers.
