5.0 out of 5 stars
Any one chapter is worth the price of the book,
By Bill Anderson (Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Microsoft Access 2 Developer's Handbook (Paperback)
If you are looking for an introductory book on Access 2.0, this is not that book. Use the MS manual and the F1 key. A lot. But once you have a basic understanding, and want to build a 'good' app, don't start without this book. If you believe that code can be beautiful and elegant you'll appreciate the book even more. The samples and examples on the accompanying disk will save you much more than the price of the book. And you'll learn a ton in the process.

Must have MS Access 2.0 book,
By A Customer
This review is from: Microsoft Access 2 Developer's Handbook (Paperback)
The best book I have found on MS Access 2.0. I originally bought it because it contains information about how to dynamically resize forms. It it a great reference manual and you can check out some of the code at Sybex website.

The Access 2.0 "Bible",
By A Customer
This review is from: Microsoft Access 2 Developer's Handbook (Paperback)
If you are doing any developing on an Access 2.0 platform and want to create better then the average application, this is the book to own. I own three other Access books and the one I keep returning to is the "Handbook". Affectionately refered to as as the "Bible", my friends and I point out page numbers to the solutions we need when brain storming. It covers even undocumented features that are available with winning detail and the disk included allows you to pop the code in right where you need it. Even novice programmers can pick up this book and get on the road to building killer applications.
This book helped me build an imaging system for a client and made me look like God's gift to consulting. Now they buy me lunch every time I see them.
It is a must for the application developer. I can't wait for the Access 97 version
