Needed Coverage of a Specific Topical Area

"Integrating Excel and Access" covers the topic spelled out in the book's title...the integration of Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Access. While this may appear to be a niche topical area, I found such integration to be important, especially when working with large and complex data sets using non-enterprise class tools.

The book does a good job covering the important area of the object models...for both Excel and Access. Utilizing and referencing object models across these two applications can prove to be a critical task when automating the integration of Access and Excel.

I used this book for the specific purpose of automating Excel from Access and vice-versa...thus my focus on object models. As such, I did not focus a great deal on the rest of the book's content.

This is the best reference I have come across related to the automation of Microsoft Excel from Microsoft Access and vice versa.
