Summary: Buy It!
Comment: I have a little vice. I buy Access books at about the rate Imelda Marcos bought shoes.
This Access book is quite simply the best I've come across. Every time I dip into it, I find something really useful that makes my Access experience better. And Feddema writes with matchless clarity.
I liked this book enough to buy a second copy for a friend. He wanted to borrow it, and I didn't want to be without it, so I bought a second copy.

Summary: InsideOut A Winner
Comment: I have spent the last several days with this book building a database for a list rental company. Being used to Access 97, I appreciated the chapter devoted to the differences in version. Compared to the Access Bible by Prague and Irwin, the language was easier for a novice to understand, less technical, more end user friendly. The step by step instructions are great because of the abundance of screen shots used. When I couldn't understand the words (like when you are trying to create a complex report), the pictures were priceless. The InsideOut text boxes kept me from a few pitfalls, like the advice on wrting SQL statements. I apprecited the explanations of how to perform tasks in more than one way, both suggestions in the same place, alleviating the search thru the index and table of contents. The only thing I haven't been able to find an explanation for is manually setting a primary key when you want it to AutoNumber, but with your own number. It's probably something really simple.
I've written a lot of tech bulletins, and I can appreciate the minute detail that went into the how-to's in this book.
I highly recommend this, intermediate to advanced DB Admin.

Summary: Hard to follow along
Comment: I found the book hard to follow along. Feddema goes into all of the features of Access 2002, but only gives them a cursory glance. I found it was not enough of a treatment to fully understand the features, or how to apply them in my own circumstances. Some explanations were easy to understand, but that had more to do with the simplicity of the feature and not her explanations. The sections on VBA coding have alot of code, but no explanations as to how the code can be constructed. I found myself refering back to Access Step-by-Step many times while trying to use this book. Eventually I had to get the Access 2002 Bible.
I would not recommend this book to anyone who finds the step-by-step format the most useful to follow. The CD is just a rehash of the book, so not really any more helpful either.
