Rating:  Summary: Genuine hands-on training. Review: Contains seven (7) projects consisting of many hands-on lessons. Excellent (but also optional), real-world follow-up questions and "Applying Your Skills" sections. Far replaced from typical "Exam Guide" books which give you lots of book knowledge but not as much experience, this $23 book provides true learning. More training books should be like this.
Rating:  Summary: All three books in this series are great! Review: I had to learn Access for my job, and found this three-volume series. The books were designed for classes, but worked very well on their own. The second book built on the basic topics (creating tables, forms, queries, reports, etc.) that were introduced in the first book. It used a step-by-step method, and the examples were real-life, not some widget company, which really helped. I am not a computer whiz, but I picked up this difficult subject without too much trouble!
Rating:  Summary: An Access Workbook Review: This was exactly the book I was looking for. Plenty of books explain database concepts, some explain Access concepts. This is a workbook that shows you how to USE Acess, rather than explaining it to you. It won't explain why things work, but it will show you how.I had a general grasp of database concepts but needed practice in using Access. This book gave it to me. I wouldn't buy this book as my only Access book. But if you've been reading up on databases, and still can't create the application you need, this book may help.
