Rating:  Summary: Easily the Best Review: The best book on Access programming. I use it every day.
Rating:  Summary: Excellent Reference for the Intermediate to Expert User Review: This is by far the best Access book on the market. Tons of information on the guts of Access that you don't get from other books. Maybe a little too heavy for the begginner but a neccessary addition to the professional Access Developer's library. A must have!
Rating:  Summary: Everything you need to develop MS Access Database Review: This is the best Access book I have read. So many codes can be reused. It cover almost everything such as Database Design, SQL, Security, Window API, Printer Control, Multiple User etc. If you find a difficult problem, you can get answer from the book. This book is excellent for high level VBA progrmmer. I use this book to develop a database which can connect to WinFax, and send fax automatically. For beginner, it's a little bit hard.
Rating:  Summary: Great book, highly recommended. Your main book. Review: This is a great book on Access 97 development. Can you imagine a 1500 page book crammed with great code examples? That's what this book contains. For example, saving your screen locations in VB is a breeze, but in Access, it's a pain. But with this book, you get the code on how to do it. They cover the API calls necessary to do this. I found this in no other Access book. This is a BIG book. It is for intermediate programmers and above. On the average, every 5 pages has about 2 pages of example code. I like this book very much and this is often the first book I turn to for help. John Dunbar is moderator of the VB Helptalk forum.

Rating:  Summary: The best MS-Access book you can get! Review: If you do not have this book in you private libary, get it! If you are developing MS-Access applications and have Q's, this is the book that will provide you with the A's, you want. Save yourself countless hours. What more can I say? GET IT!
Rating:  Summary: The third and best edition Review: If you already own a copy of one of the prior editions of this book, you may be wondering if you should buy this book, too. Yes--if you're planning to develop applications with Access 97 and you liked the prior editions, we're sure you'll get a lot out of this edition, as well. So much in Access has changed for the developer, and we cover it all--okay, not all, but almost all.
This edition includes all new coverage of VBA Class Modules, Internet Functionality (including the publishing of ASP and IDC pages), Shared Office Programmability (CommandBars, FileSearch, and the Assistant), ODBCDirect, Internet-based and Partial Replication, and Source Code Control
Rating:  Summary: Good Reference Book Review: I've been using this book for over a year, and continually keep going back to it for refreshers, and to look for solutions to new problems. I find this book to be very easy to understand, and my personal Bible for Access '97.
Rating:  Summary: If you develop or support Access applications, buy this book Review: If you have ever searched in a bookstore or online for computer support books, you know how easy it is to become overwhelmed by the number of choices available. Let me help you simplify your search. Buy this book. Well, if you are not a beginner buy this book; it is not for the novice. And that is why it is so valuable. There is no shortage of intro books on the market, and many of the works aimed at "advanced" users still spend have the book telling you what a database is and how a relational database differs from previous types and so on. In this book, you do not get cheated. I work on a team of three database consultants and we are constantly stealing this book from one another. I have found it useful for troubleshooting existing databases, but it really shines as a wealth of new ideas and possibilities. I have added things from this book to many projects. It is rich is code samples and the cd that comes with it is a treasure trove of functions and files. You'll find things here that you never knew Access could do, which allows you to create richer, more powerful applications. Well worth the investment!
