Both Excel and Access are capable of doing a lot of things that the other can do. Both can store data. Both allow you to manipulate data. Access is primarily for lists of data, such as names and addresses, while Excel mainly deals with numbers.
An Excel document is called a Workbook. A workbook always has at least one Worksheet. Workseets are the grid where you can store and calculate data. You can have many worksheets stored inside a workbook, each with a unique worksheet name. Worksheets are laid out in columns (vertical) and rows (horizontal).
