 Very helpful, well organized text February 16, 2008
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I opened to Queries, immediately I was able to use what I read in a short time to my work. It's well organized, you can go directly to the chapter of the subject you need to know about. If you don't create tables or databases but just need how to query, you can go directly to that. It's probably the most comprehensive book on Access 2007 out there. I highly recommend.
 FAR FROM EASY February 8, 2008

LESS PAGES AND MORE CONCENTRATION ON THE REALLY IMPORTANT ASPECTS WOULD BE GREAT. BY COVERING "EVERYTHING" THE BOOK LOSES APPEAL FOR THE 80 PERCENT OF THE POPULATION WHO WILL NEVER USE "EVERYTHING.
MORE HANDS ON EXAMPLES WOULD BE TERRIFIC TOO !!
A Fantastic Resource October 26, 2007

I am a Super Moderator on an Access forum and I see questions about Access and Access 2007 all of the time. This book is a fantastic resource for someone wanting to find out about Access 2007 and how to use it. However, it is more than that! There are excellent reference materials within the book that would make it a "keeper" for anyone working with Microsoft Access, regardless of version.
There are plenty of examples and screenshots, making it one of the easier reference books on Access to understand.
I highly recommend this book to anyone wanting a better "Access" experience.
A good introductory guide to Access 2007 October 22, 2007

Access 2007 introduces a significantly steeper learning curve that the previous two versions, with a raft of complex GUI changes and a radically ramped navigation system. This is an excellent book to get familiar with these new features, and the additional CD ROM provides a superb resource with a substantial amount of extra material not in the book itself.
I would like to have seen fewer chapters on subjects such as introducing VBA (reiterating conditional loops - excuse the pun - really isn't necessary anymore), and a little more on good database design conventions and ways to tackle medium to large-sized projects. Having said that, it's well pitched to cover the questions from the majority of its audience.
I've grown to be quite fond of the Microsoft Publishing line of titles, in that the quality of the content is very consistent and I've yet to find a single technical error. The "Please Buy Microsoft" subliminal messages are not as chokingly omnipresent in recent editions either. Overall, this is a great way to spend $30 and feel somewhat grounded after a couple of days work.
Excellent Book July 21, 2007

If your looking for a comprehensive training guide, this is your book! I have had no experience with access before this book, but I was asked to do a project in access, and this book brought me from being utterly confused to having a very solid knowledge of the program. I update this review as I progress through the book. I am now roughly 1000 pages into the book, and I have not been disappointed yet, very easy to read, and very hands on, the quality is consistent as you go on through the chapters, it's very rare to find a spelling error or reference error(although there are a few.)
