Summary: If you develop or support Access applications, buy this book
Comment: If you have ever searched in a bookstore or online for computer support books, you know how easy it is to become overwhelmed by the number of choices available. Let me help you simplify your search. Buy this book. Well, if you are not a beginner buy this book; it is not for the novice. And that is why it is so valuable. There is no shortage of intro books on the market, and many of the works aimed at "advanced" users still spend have the book telling you what a database is and how a relational database differs from previous types and so on. In this book, you do not get cheated. I work on a team of three database consultants and we are constantly stealing this book from one another. I have found it useful for troubleshooting existing databases, but it really shines as a wealth of new ideas and possibilities. I have added things from this book to many projects. It is rich is code samples and the cd that comes with it is a treasure trove of functions and files. You'll find things here that you never knew Access could do, which allows you to create richer, more powerful applications. Well worth the investment!

Summary: Not For Beginner's or Intermediates!
Comment: Like their previous book for Access 95, this book on Access 97 is crammed full of extremely useful information for the ADVANCED developer. Note: It is NOT a book for beginner or intermediate Access programmers. And if you think you are an "advanced" Access programmer, the arrival of this book may prove two things: 1.) that you over-estimated your skills and 2.) that you just wasted $50. ......My suggestion: first go to a bookstore to check the book out. If you can understand it, first congratulate yourself (!!!), then go home and order it via Amazon.com. Most Access users, including professional developers (myself included) will, however, decide that either they don't need the information presented and/or they simply do not understand the material. (I should note that most material is just presented without any explanation of why it works - it's up to you to figure out why and possibly adapt it to your projects.......In short, the authors REALLY know their stuff, but the book was written for extremely advanced developers like themselves. And if you are not one of these, but are a mere mortal like most of us who earn a living working with Access, then you are simply wasting your money.

Summary: Good Reference Book
Comment: Warning this book is not for the faint-hearted! More than 1000 pages of pure reference material for the intermediate/advanced Access user. It's a great book but not one that you can read through from the beginning to the end (and it's not written like that).
Don't buy this book if you're a beginner. However, if you're into major Access coding and want to know the deep deep stuff of how to make Access obey you, then this is a fantastic reference book.
