So Far So Good!

This book has been extremely helpful while learning to use this program. Really takes you step by step through every single aspect of the program rather than leaving it up to you to fill in the blanks. Great for first time users.

Phew!

Much needed. I took a course (with no handouts). This book not only refreshed the memory and is a great reference, but also gave me some new tips.

Very helpful book.

I like the book. My Microsoft Applications class at college rushed through Access and I didn't understand it at all. This book really just makes everything simple and is full of helpful analogies.

GREAT for computer dummies!!

I know little to nothing about computers but this book was laid out so that even I could understand what was supposed to be happening!! Thank you so much for helping me to expand my business and make life more simple!!

Good Introduction to Access and the new Ribbon

Access is the most popular database program in the world. The reason is two fold: 1. It's very easy to use. Microsoft has gone to a great deal of effort to make the program fit in with the rest of the Office system so that knowing Word or Excel gives you a good bit of the background you need to use Access. 2. Access is part of the Microsoft Office package, so you probably get it when you get Word and Excell. There's always a question about just how good Access really is. And the answer is that it's pretty good for databases up to perhaps 50 megabytes with no more than a few thousand accesses a day. Above that go to something bigger like SQL Server. This book starts with a discussion about databases in general and what you might use one to do. Then,like all of the books on the other Office 2007 packages, it begins talking about Microsoft's new Ribbon interface that replaces the look that Access has had for years. The Access front end is very powerful. It has been worked on for years to keep you from having to learn how to program in the direct language the database engine understands -- SQL. That's my main complaint about people who use Access, and the books written for them. Just a few pages introducing SQL and giving the reserved words for the Access (Jet) database would be a big help.
