Summary: Poorly written, organized, and relentlessly trivial
Comment: My background is in Word Perfect Macro Language 5.0 and 5.1. I'm not a professional programmer, but I was able to learn and become quite expert in the WP macros. I stress I am talking about the language and not simple keystroke macros. This book gives no real conceptual overview to the reader, introduces new terms into every definition without prior notice., and gives what I feel are incomplete explanations. A measure of how bad the book is is that when I go back a chapter or so to see how something I I've read fits in, I'm more confused rather than. less.. The examples of macros are inane... Using the book has been frustrating and anger inducing.. A waste of money. in an expense of shame (to paraphrase the Bard). .

Summary: Too basic for me
Comment: As a visual basic programmer, I was hoping this book would concentrate on how to do interesting things in Word. Instead, this book spends 80 pages on an intro to VBA, and there are just a few examples of interesting things you can do in Word. So I'd recommend this book for someone who has never programmed in VBA before. I'm thinking of ordering an advanced Word book instead.

Summary: Book covered access; could have covered VBA Better
Comment: The book covered Access very well. It could have covered VBA better. For example, the VBA exercises would have been improved if they were at a more specific level.
