12. Repeat the procedure to import data from the
US_Airports.csv
file
with a connection name of
US_Airports
. You should end up with
three tables in the designer.
You use two views to work with the model: the data view and the diagram
view. The data view shows each table in a tab with the data in a grid (see
Figure 11.19
). The area below the grid is where you define measures such as
sum or count to aggregate the data.
