5.0 out of 5 stars
Very good. Hard to put down. Real life decisions.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Access 97 Expert Solutions (Paperback)
I have been reading through this book off and on for the past 6 months. Each time I pick it up to read about one area of interest I end up reading on and on. Very practical information that helps eliminate time consuming experimentation on my part. I like his style and clear explanations. I find PRACTICAL information. He has obviously been around the block with Access 97. This book has saved me countless hours of experimenting. I like his approach to giving advice. He states: Here are 3 ways to handle this situation: 1) X 2) Y and 3) Z Then he says X is good but has this drawback. Y is better but lacks this flixibility. Z is my choice for the following reasons. Now THAT is practical and straight forward. If there is not a clear 'best choice' approach to solving a problem he just tells you that. Again, very PRACTICAL, DOWN TO EARTH, NO HYPE information. I like this book very much. I prefer writing VBA code so I find the book extremely worthwhile. Again, I have a hard time closing this book.

You MUST get this book if you're serious about Access 97,
By A Customer
This review is from: Access 97 Expert Solutions (Paperback)
There are tons of books about Microsoft Access, but if you're a serious developer, there are only a very few that offer wisdom you haven't seen before. Books by Ken Getz and Scott Barker have been on that short list; now you can add this great new book by Stan Leszynski. Stan's book has quite a lot of clearly-explained techniques and how-to's. He includes some great technical information on how to make the most of new features in Access 97. If this were all that the book offered, it would still be well worth the investment in dollars and reading effort. But Stan's new work includes something that just hasn't been available before -- a "framework", or overall approach, for developing in Access. This framework is a set of principles, guidelines, standards, and tools that make Access development quicker, more consistant, and error-free. I highly recommend this book for corporate developers, consultants, and anyone else who is (or wants to be) really serious about Access.

Very Good, but not for Begining Access Developers,
By A Customer
This review is from: Access 97 Expert Solutions (Paperback)
I found this book to be of tremendous value in defining my own method of building a design specification for a database project. While this is only part of what is presented, Mr. Leszynski's development Methods are what I use the most. The book tends to be a bit intellectual and is at times ponderous, but as it presents volumes of material, it is worth it. Mr. Leszynski is a noted expert in this field, and is perhaps the best known name (my apologies to Ken Getz & Paul Litwin <g>) The samples provided were applicable and of immediate use to me in my developments. In short, this book is for Advanced Access developers, but intermediate level users (like me) will still find it of use. John P. Reed, Metatronics, Ltd.
