What I didn't know

This book has been a tremendous help to me. I have been a basic programmer since the 1980s, but have tried to move into object oriented programming without instruction. I purchased this book as a reference. After using it for a while as such, I decided to go completely through it - front to back, following the examples available online. I have learned so much!

Helps me a great deal - every day!

I really like this book. We still use Access 2003 at work, so I wanted a book specifically for that version and specifically for VBA. I am already a fairly experienced Access user, but was not as experienced in VBA. As anyone who's used Access knows, you need VBA to make just about anything work. I'm very pleased and have gained a great deal of experience from this book. Very good examples and written well. I'm very...

Fantastic book for intermediate-advanced users

This is not the book for beginners. But this is the book for users who have a good foundation with the basics of Access- forms, reports, and queries- and want to learn how to use VBA to improve their database. I'm working on a project where I need to reprogram many aspects of the database, and this book has been invaluable. I have plenty of Access books for reference, but this book is the secret weapon for Access programmers...

Almost Great

As programming books this one did actually have something I could use and gave an example of how to use it. It even gave the code.......what a thought. Most programming books offer little more than lots of pages of "stuff" you cannot use. The book took you through the process of how to code a "Message" box. This one actually did have a few things one could use. Not a good beginner book, intermediate to advanced. This...

Excellent tool book

I am a old hand on Access programming. I use , design and program Access since office 97. After studying this book, I found out I just knew so little about Access. The content is pretty easy read and excellent examples. Every Access programmer need to have this book for their reference.
