Office 2011 for Mac All-in-One For Dummies

My recommendation would be to ask for Access assistance in a Microsoft community. I would not use an online third party for Access. I would figure out how to use Access directly from Microsoft or I would get recommendations from the Microsoft community regarding how to best use Access on a Mac. Microsoft Access for Mac I have purchase Microsoft 360 Home, the $9.99/mo version. When installing Office, the only apps that appear in my applications area (I use a Mac) are PowerPoint, Word, Excel, OneNote and Outlook.

Mac users have several options for using Microsoft Access on their Macs.

Microsoft Office for Mac can do the following with Microsoft Access ACCDB and MDB files:

  • 2011 and 2016: Get data from an Access file into an Excel Table or Excel PivotTable
  • 2011 and 2016: Use Structured Query Language (SQL) in VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) and AppleScript automation
  • 2011 and 2016: Use the macro recorder to get started with code
  • 2011 only: Use a graphical user interface (Microsoft Query) to generate queries and reports from Microsoft Access
    • Excel 2016 users can only vote here and hope someday Microsoft will restore this essential functionality lost to cost cutting

Limitations of Office for Mac with Microsoft Access

  • Interaction with Access is Read-Only. Excel for Mac can not add, delete or modify records, fields, queries, views, tables or create anything new within Access.
  • Only tables and views are available from Access databases. Forms and reports in an Access database are not available to Excel for Mac.

I need all Access features. Can I run Microsoft Access on my Mac? Yes!

Microsoft Access 2016 is available as a stand-alone product. You will need to have Microsoft Windows installed on your Mac either in Apple's Boot-Camp or in a virtual machine (Parallels or VMware). Using a virtual machine allows you to run Wndows and Windows applications simultaneously with your Mac OS apps. I recommend at least 16 gigabytes of RAM for running a virtual machine on your Mac.
