Product Description:
Develop your Access 2003 expertise instantly with proven techniques!
Let's face it: Microsoft Access is a large, intimidating program. Unlike Word or Excel where you can perform basic tasks without much in the way of training, Access presents challenges from the outset. Most people never progress beyond creating simple tables and using Wizards to create basic forms and reports. At the same time, everyone — from managers to researchers to administrative assistants — needs information and knows that what they seek is embedded somewhere in their Access tables. Without a more sophisticated knowledge of how to extract and present that data, they are forced to rely on office gurus and overworked IT people to provide canned reports or one-size-fits-all solutions.
This book changes all that by giving you the skills to extract the data you need (queries), build efficient front-ends for that data (forms), and publish the results in an attractive and easy-to-read format (reports). To that end, this book shuns the big Access picture and instead focuses intently on queries, forms, and reports. This in-depth approach will give you the knowledge and understanding you need to get at the data and prove the old saw that knowledge is indeed power.
Focuses like a laser on the three technologies that you must master to get the most out of Access: queries, forms, and reports.
Shuns database theory in favor of practical know-how that you can put to use right away.
Packed full of real-world examples and techniques to help you learn and understand the importance of each section.

This book is very useful for a beginner in Access. Not very difficult to go through, however, seems to lack examples. Nevertheless, the book is worth the purchase for someone willing to learn querying, reporting and forms.

Product is OK Not what I expected. I thought it was a full program of Access.
Rating: -
This book has many samples to work from. It is very useful tool for someone to use to pull informtion out of a database.
Rating:  -
All the other reviews must have been written by the published or author because this book was definitely not 4.5 stars. The content is good, but if you are trying to learn access it is pretty confusing and annoying to use as a reference. Not enough examples and too many wordy descriptions which become confusing and annoying to decipher. Not to mention my book came missing about 50 pages.
Rating: -
If you are a beginner then there is some value. Any higher skill level then you will find that the book lacks meat - nothing new or exciting or creative to forms, reports or queries that you could not get out of some dummy book. No cd to practice with and some of the examples are unclear.
