The process that allows a software program to talk to the hardware is known as what? a, networking b, time-sharing c, device driver d, program execution

The answer is program execution

Program execution is the process by which a computer executes instructions of a computer program. It simply means running a program. A good example is the Word Processor program. The action of double clicking the Word Processor shortcut icon orders your computer to copy the program from your hard disk to the main memory so the CPU can execute it.  

a macro is a tool that allows you to automate tasks and add functionality to your forms, reports, and controls. for example, if you add a command button to a form, you associate the button's onclick event to a macro, and the macro contains the commands that you want the button to perform each time it is clicked.
