Summary: Excellent access book, but definitely not for a dummy
Comment: This is among the best computer books i bought. It is a bridge between a beginner access user and a beginner access programmer. It answered a lot of my access VB questions and opened me a window of SQL. Easy to follow, welll organized and excellent CD samples. However, the book required a certain amount of knowledge of VB programming. I could not have enjoyed it without my previous experience in VB. Be carefully, real dummies!

Summary: Excellent
Comment: It might be difficult for someone with no knowledge of Access or Visual Basic, but I thought the book was great. If you have some knwledge of Access, databases in general or VBA, VB, ADO, SQL, etc, this is a great reference with a lot of examples. It's by no means a comprehensive reference like an Access Developers Handbook. But it does give a ton of practical examples that goes deeper than the push button programming most Access Developers use. I would buy more books by this author.
If you want the basics, theres probably Access For Dummies. But Access programming for Dummies is about the backend coding more than building from pulldown menus.

Summary: Not nearly as great as the Excel 97 Programming for Dummies
Comment: The Excel 97 Programming for Windows for Dummies by John Walkenbach was a great book for learning VBA for Excel, and it included coverage of some advanced topics. Each chapter kept building your understanding in a logical way until finally advanced topics were explained. Based on my experience with the Excel 97 Programming book, I purchased the Access 97 Programming book by Krumm. However I was quite disappointed with the Access 97 Programming book. It's coverage was spotty with some select in-depth examples. As an example, the coverage of the RunCommand was two example statements: DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdWindowCascade and DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdOptions. The explanation for RunCommands was as short as the two commands. It seemed that virtually every time I was looking for help on a VBA issue, there was nothing relevant in the Access 97 Programming for Windows for Dummies book.
