Product Description

Product Description
Compared to industrial-strength database products such as Microsoft's SQL Server, Access is a breeze to use. It runs on PCs rather than servers and is ideal for small- to mid-sized businesses and households. But Access is still intimidating to learn. It doesn't help that each new version crammed in yet another set of features; so many, in fact, that even the pros don't know where to find them all. Access 2007 breaks this pattern with some of the most dramatic changes users have seen since Office 95. Most obvious is the thoroughly redesigned user interface, with its tabbed toolbar (or "Ribbon") that makes features easy to locate and use. The features list also includes several long-awaited changes. One thing that hasn't improved is Microsoft's documentation. To learn the ins and outs of all the features in Access 2007, Microsoft merely offers online help.

Access 2007: The Missing Manual was written from the ground up for this redesigned application. You will learn how to design complete databases, maintain them, search for valuable nuggets of information, and build attractive forms for quick-and-easy data entry. You'll even delve into the black art of Access programming (including macros and Visual Basic), and pick up valuable tricks and techniques to automate common tasks -- even if you've never touched a line of code before. You will also learn all about the new prebuilt databases you can customize to fit your needs, and how the new complex data feature will simplify your life. With plenty of downloadable examples, this objective and witty book will turn an Access neophyte into a true master.

3.0 out of 5 stars OK but Basic, 8 Aug 2008
By D. Stoddart "darrill" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is easy to read and follow and indeed it would be a good manual with the product. But it really is for beginners. If you have used Access before give this book a miss.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to understand - helped me enormously, 19 Nov 2008
By H. Coburn (Surrey, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is definitely a beginners book, but as a beginner I found it very easy to follow, excellent tutorials and a great reference. So many books seem to be geared for a bit more knowledge and those of us who have to start at the beginning can get lost - I would definitely recommend this one to anyone who needs help building building databases and with greater functionality than just a table of records.

4.0 out of 5 stars Access 2007 for Starters contre Access 2007, 26 May 2009
By J. Evans - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I started with the "Starters" edition, well where would you start? And now, I want to delve deeper.
Unfortunately, having followed the "Starters" edition I now found that having bought the "Access 2007, The Missing Manual" I am now covering subjects that have been covered in the "Starters" edition, not to the same extent admittedly, but it does mean I am going over a lot of ground that the "Starters" edition covers.
Decide how deeply you want to delve and then decide. For a general knowledge take the "Starters" edition but if you are deeply interested then take Access 2007, The Missing Manual.
But not both!
