Comment: I began my association with Alison Balter in 1999 when I purchased Alison Balter's Mastering Microsoft Access 2000 Development. At that time, I was relatively new to MS Access database development, and was faced with a critical project that I was doing for a major university. Not only was Ms. Balter's book extremely helpful, but, when I couldn't find a specific answer in the book, an email to Ms. Balter resolved the problem -- within 24 hours!
More recently, I have purchased both Alison Balter's Mastering Access 2002 Desktop Development (With CD-ROM) and Alison Balter's Guide to Access 2002 Enterprise Development(with CDROM). These books are just as indispensable as the one I used in 1999. And, a recent email sent to Ms. Balter was responded to within one business day!
My current project involves replication, a specialized multi-user solution. The Enterprise Development book has been especially useful here. Both books are a must for serious Access development.
Alison Balter's experience, expertise, and professionalism are all remarkable. Whether you are a beginner, or an advanced MS Access developer, Alison Balter's books are guaranteed to be of valuable assistance.

Summary: Transitioning to Client/Server Made Easier
Comment: Because of budget constraints, most of what I know I got from books, junior college night classes, and every day work experience. I only mention this because I want you to know I really appreciate a good, affordable source of information. Like most Access programmers, I have bought books like those written by the "L-G-G Trinity." They are outstanding reference works that I can understand after only four or five readings. I wouldn't want to be without them. But I sometimes lose my way when these clever guys make the jump to light speed, and I am not even strapped in yet. They occasionally hurt my feelings when they refer to an example as "simple" when I have spent two hours mulling over the code. I don't mean this as criticism. Heck it would be a privilege to even meet these guys. But I am very, very glad that we have a writer like Alison Balter.
Somehow she pitches things at just the right level of complexity and at a rate that most of us can easily understand. And the content is immediately applicable to my work. I am trying to move from MDBs linked to SQL Server using ODBC toward ADPs. If you are in a similar situation, read this book first. When you are finished you will have a good basic understanding of SQL Server and how you can manipulate it from the ADP front-end. You and I are still probably going to want to get a couple (One is never enough.) of additional books on SQL Server.
By the way, there is a companion volume to this book called Allison Balter's Mastering Access 2002 Desktop Development. Read this one too and keep it for reference. It's great for filling in gaps in your knowledge.

Summary: Good Introduction to SQL Server for Access Developers Book
Comment: Alison Balter's Mastering Access 2002 Enterprise Development is a very good Introduction to SQL Server for Access Developers book. This book covers a broad range of skillfully chosen topics and the depth of the coverage is excellent for initial broad overview.
For the most part this book stays focused on Access and SQL Server, providing useful information to those Access developers who are interested in using SQL Server for database application's back end. This book is an excellent bridge between Access only and Access plus SQL Server development. This book is potentially especially useful to people who are very familiar with Access development and VBA and want to take the first steps (and beyond) toward learning SQL Server software for large database development and/or administration. In addition, this book addresses various Access multi-user development issues. For all of these reasons I would give this book more than five stars if I could.
