Summary: The best book on Access
Comment: To teach an intermediate course on Access I had to read most of the Access books in the market. By far this is the best one as it takes the reader from the very basics to advanced programming in Visual Basic for Applications. Too bad that Mr. Viescas did not write the Access 2000 version.

Summary: Poor Training Kit: Online Tutorial & "Running Access 2000"
Comment: The accompanying computer-based tutorial (not the books own CD) would be MUCH more useful in book format, so that single-PC trainees won't have to either split windows or frequently switch between Access and tutorial. The tutorial's content is cookbook -- and worthwhile for beginners like me. Once one finishes the tutorial, one quickly finds that the "Running Access..." book is clearly a reference and not a training guide. Unfortunately, the tutorial does not provide sufficient practice for the trainee to only need a reference book. Recommendation: For trainees, find a more comprehensive training resource. I'm now buying Alison Balter's "Mastering Access 2000 Development" book, wishing I had started there.

Summary: The worst book I have ever purchased.....
Comment: Let me start by saying that I have bought and read no less than about 50 technical books in my lifetime and I have never written a review good or bad about any of them. With this one I feel like I have to write a review so that no one else makes the same mistake I made.
I have been in the computer field for over 10 years now and I recently decided that I want to learn Access. I am already quite familiar with most of the concepts and want to learn how to write a small Access program. I started with Access Step by Step and it was great. The next step in Microsoft's plan is to read this book.
What a completely terrible book. It is all over the place. It goes on and on about stupid stuff like using a keyboard and mouse and never, not once in all 1,000 pages, show you how to create forms to manipulate data. He says look at my bad examples on the cd but never once talks you through designing your own form. Terrible, terrible book!
