Sams Teach Yourself Microsoft Access 2000 in 21 Days Review by Neil Laslett
Good hands-on book
This is a great hands-on book covering most aspects of MS Access. After looking over several other books, I found this one the easiest to read and use, especially for busy professionals who are computer-savvy but who aren't familiar with Access. It's organized in a way that makes it easy to pick up and learn the one specific task that you need to tackle, or you can read it cover-to-cover like a course.
I don't know why the reviews are so negative. No one book can cover everything in Access, but even advanced topics such as VBA and SQL are given decent overviews - and the author gives good recommendations on where to turn for more info.
In the end, computer books are a matter of personal preference, and everybody has their own style. This one gets my vote.
