When using the Base Table Wizard, the very first question is
Category: Business or Personal. This is very confusing to users, who

the difference is more than that, then there should be an explanation.
Thoughts on improvement?
What is confusing? The sample tables in the Business category contain
fields to be used in a business database. The sample tables in the Personal
category contain fields to be used in a personal database. To me, this is
obvious when you look at the names of the suggested tables.
What is confusing is that it is not obvious that the differences is
limited only to the sample fields.
Maybe the label should be changed from "Category" to "Sample Fields
Types". It will then be obvious _what_ changes when the selection is
made, and furthermore it will be obvious that the change is limited to
only that part of the wizard.
I would consider "category" and "sample fields types" to have very
similar meanings. So, it might be a matter of interpreting the words
used. What I just did was to open the Table Wizard and then clicked on
the Help button in the wizard. I then click the Table Wizard - Select
Fields link. That link seems to clearify the meaning. There is a slight
problem though: Help refers to Business and Private rather than Business
and Personal. That might cause some confusion.
