Microsoft® Office Access 2003 Step by Step (Step By Step (Microsoft))

Have found everything within Amazon that Ive purchased 2 be totally what I have been looking 4 & the service is second 2 none.

Plan 2 use this sight 4 everything I need!

This book is not very concise & I suspect this 2 be because it's geared toward the beginner & it wants you 2 play with the demos that's on the included CD 2 see how everything all comes together. In other words, "Trial by Fire" training method is how you learn.

It does, however, give you enough input 2 get you into trouble & have an adequate 2 professional looking database. There is one thing that it doesn't do. It doesn't STRESS, enough, the importance of Outling your ideas 4 the way you want your database design 2 look, feel, & be like. That is the most important factor you are going 2 have 2 consider, first.

Plagiarizing sample databases almost, always, proves 2 be a "must do" in order 2 get your database 2 work like the Pro's. Maybe, plagiarizing isn't the best word 2 use. Oh well, too late. Have fun!

I needed this 2 help me with my work & was happy with the price paid. Thanks 4 the fast delivery!

I did not find this book very useful. It does not give you enough practice. It gives you files & lets you make changes but does not give indepth explainations about what you are doing. It gives you an overview of Access but not enough information 2 set up a simple data base.

I purchased the Microsoft Word book at the same time & it is worse than this one.

thi9s is a quite useful book that covers a range of detailed information. at times i find it difficult t olocate exactly what i want & i feel the book is written with an expectation that you will undestand a great deal of the technical terms before embarking on this work book.
