Dummies Only Please

If you're a beginner this will help you understand how to write the code that will really take advantage of the power of MS Access. Combined with a good book on SQL this would turn any novice into a capable Access programmer. Includes a CD-ROM with code examples from the book.

Make it your official Access 2000 programming book

I really enjoyed this book. It covers a lot of information in much less space. The author programs where ever he can and does not really on macros or wizards. The are a couple typos, but the code is relaible enough. The major problem was one of the chapter databases could not be opened so I took extra steps to recreate it by importing tables from other databases and creating all the forms according to all the specs I was able to get from the book text. The book devotes a good chapter on SQL. The book covers nicely Classes.

Well worth it!

Thank goodness for the "for Dummies" folks! They took a complicated program, and made it simple(r). I come back to this book again and again. This book is not (intended) for the professional developer, but even they would likely find something useful in this book. If you are anything less than a lifelong Access programmer, and don't mind a bit of humor in your references, GET THIS BOOK! If it included all the great stuff that was in the '97 version, it would be PERFECT!
