Entering a field description

The field description is completely optional; you use it only to help you remember a field’s uses or to let another developer understand the field’s purpose. Often you don’t use the description column at all, or you use it only for fields whose purpose is not obvious. If you enter a field description, it appears in the status bar whenever you use that field in Access—in the datasheet or in a form.

The field description can help clarify a field whose purpose is ambiguous or give the user a fuller explanation of the values valid for the field during data entry.
