An excellent resource and reference book

To say that this book is useful is an understatement. It combines in one compact volume a complete and understandable reference to DAO which now never leaves my side (even a bedside read!). Most of the references are punctuated with code samples written in such a neat way that it makes my own coding look cumbersome and tortuous. The book is worth buying for the code examples alone. Helen's book is enabling me to write succinct, direct code and to expand my knowledge and use of the DAO object

I have yet to go wrong with an O'Reilly book.

O'Reilly needs to have a color of book for those books which fit between Nutshell books, and what I like to call the "learning books" (ie. "Access Database programming and design"). This book would be one of those books. I don't think I could learn DAO from this book. I first realized DAO's potential from reading Steven Roman's Access Database Design & Programming. However, if you realize the capabilities of DAO and are ready to move on to the next level, then this is the book that you need. While the nutshell books are good "ticklers" (you just need to know the syntax), they don't go into a whole lot of depth. This is the book you need when you are thinking "there IS a way to program this, but what is it?". After you have mastered DAO, and just need a "tickler", then you can graduate to DAO in a Nutshell... whenever that comes out.I have used this book many times when I knew that DAO could do the job, but, I needed a little bit more background info than just the syntax.

More Reference than How-to Book

This book covered the most I've seen on DAO. It does not cover ADO at all, but mentions that another book covering ADO is in the works. The book is really a reference book, listing out each and every command. It works best as a lookup for specific commands. If you need to learn DAO get another book, but once your into it and get into trouble, this book might just help.
