Please Verify My Gripe

Okay just took Database Management and Design mid-term exam (Covers mostly Microsoft Access XP (2002)) but my gripe can be verified through older versions and even Excel.

I got this question wrong and the answer it has given as being correct is totally wrong.

Question: Which of the following is NOT a selection technique?

Your Answer (My Answer): To select a column, double-click anywhere in the column.

Correct Answer: To select a row, click the record selector box to the left of the row.


Now unless I read the answer wrong it says, anywhere, which includes anywhere where the user has inputted data. I verified and it does not select the column like the question wants to know. There "correct" answer actually is a selection technique that works. ?????????????????????????????

Thank you.

I just wanted to verify that I wasn't losing my mind😕

Maybe they meant row only? Have you talked to the prof?

Not yet, damn test is online.

Some moron wrote it because it takes minor spelling errors and counts the whole question wrong, she didn't mention that.

I have two other questions that got counted wrong and am going to try and argue.
