To add to what Kristen has suggested, use the sample database to experiment and/or be sure to back up your file before experimenting on your real data.

The ability to sort locations in several different sequences is also extremely helpful. Don’t be afraid to experiment, and don’t expect to have everything perfect at the outset. There are probably very few of us who haven’t decided at some point to change a particular data entry scheme.
