I have just started working on MS Access 2007. I know how to create a form and add buttons, textboxes, etc

I don't know how to connect my values entered in textbox to my table in database.

How do I save a new record?

I know the query, which is; 

INSERT INTO table_name VALUES (txtUser, txtEmail);

I just want my "Save" button to execute the above query.

First of all, is my query correct? Is this the right way of connecting textbox values so as to save in my table?

Make a google search you can easily get the answer – Biju jose Oct 20 '12 at 12:56
you might want to look into binding you data to the form - then everything is automatic. look at the "recordset" property for the form. – Max Vernon Oct 20 '12 at 14:25

@MaxVernon I finally got it! I selected my table and clicked "Create Form." Then I kept my button in my form using the wizard. Then I edited it's macro. And it worked! I never had to run a query after all. I'm really bad in database, I never knew I could insert a new record without even coding! Please excuse my beginner's types of questions. I would appreciate if beginners like myself are encouraged. Thanks. – deepz Oct 20 '12 at 15:58
