Running Movies

Build and run the application as you did in the previous tutorials.

Experiment with the application by entering different search criteria and inserting, updating, and deleting movies. For example:

Search for all movies beginning with the letter "A".
Type A in the title field, and click Match.
Change the attributes of one of the movies and click "Save to database."
When you're done, perform another search to verify that your change was saved.
Try entering dates with different formats.
In the same movie, try changing the date released using different formats (for example, "6/7/97," "June 7, 1997," and "today"). Save each time after changing the date.
Create a new movie.
Click Insert/New to create a new, empty movie. Fill out all the fields, and click "Save to database." Search for your movie to verify that it was saved successfully.
Delete your movie.
With your movie selected, click Delete and then click "Save to database." When you're done, search for the movie again to verify that it's been deleted.
