Looks good BUT...
23 Jan 2011
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Lately I've bought a lot of Access 2010 and Excel 2010 books. I'm noticing a disturbing trend. In the "good old days" there would be a CD ROM with course examples included so you didn't have to type in the code. Now we have the web.
But each book hides the example code URL or doesn't bother to include it at all.
This is one of those books that makes you search high and low for the URL. I haven't found it yet.
At first flyover, this appears to be a very strong book. But still ... I feel cheated that I don't have the example code to go with it.
This is a followup to my earlier review.
I contacted the author using the email address in the book. No reply.
After a lot of work, I found customer support at McGraw-Hill. It took them two days to tell me that data on exercise files was not in their database. One of their reps asked me why I would want such a thing.
Most of the code in the text should be easy to type in, however the very useful Win32API code is quite tedious to type. I expect code to be available on CD or web site. I don't think there is any excuse to not have it.
If I could edit my star rating, it would be 3 stars because of the missing code files.

Great for getting that extra power out of Access if you know nothing
3 Mar 2011
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I have never programmed a stitch in my life before, but I do have some background in having done some SQL administration.
I have been learning MS Access for two weeks now, using what I could find through searches on the web, as well as the MS help files, so my knowledge of Access is somewhat limited.
This book starts exactly where I needed it to start - with the most basic of explanations of things like - where do you actually write your VBA code, what are modules and objects and so on.
It explains it in very simple straight forward English, but it gets the message across of how to use VBA to do the things I need to be able to do, effectively.

Concise and to the Point
2 Jan 2011
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I found this book very informative and concise. The examples of code were very easy to follow. There were a number of helpful solutions (coding is very specific) to enhancing and securing a program for use. I have used previously version of access and found this very helpful with the switch to 2010.
Chapters were short and to the point. I would certainly recommend this book for someone looking for "real" solutions to coding and/or macro development. The book is 360 pages of great information that can be read in a day (highlighter or sticky notes in hand would be good). Great Book!
