Database software is the phrase used to describe any software
that is designed for creating databases and managing the
information stored in them. Sometimes referred to as database
management systems (DBMS), database software tools are
primarily used for storing, modifying, extracting, and searching
for information within a database. Database software is used
for a number of reasons in any industry - from keeping your
bookkeeping on task, compiling client lists to running your
online Web site.
Although database software is similar to database management
software (DBMS), most database software lacks native
language support, such as SQL, MySQL or any other database
querying language. For example, MS Access software allows
users to create, manage and query a database using its GUI
controls and features, without having to write programming
queries.

source, this is known as source date automation.
Following data entry, some data manipulation is usually needed
to manipulate the entered ("raw") data into structures that are
suitable for analysis. Typically, data manipulation tasks include:
Copying data
