We upsized our Access-MDB-application to SQL Server 7.0 with the help of this book. We are newbies to SQL Server and that is were the book starts. We now plan to move to Acc2K und SQL Server 2000.

Very good buy. Discuss a lot on the newest access technology like xml and web. However, there are some part of the example program missing in the CD provided, not a big issue as they can be easily written if you hav done some access form programming.

This book was a great help! We successful create a ADP-application with Office XP and SQL Server 2000.

Dont waste your money. I got this today in the post. After a quick look when they install of all things SQL Server 7, I looked at the rest of the book. A new book which is available and written WHEN A2002 and SQL Server 2000 where available and this is the result. Save your money and download books online or buy SQL Access to SQL Server published by Apress. In one section that book has more useful information that this entire volume. MS Press seem to be throwing a book at everything lately and quality was bound to suffer. Pity it was an important area like ADPs that suffered. Me, I am returning this for a refund tomorrow. More useful information on MSDN.

I love this book. I build a complex ADP application with a lot of SQL Server stored procedures. The authors described very good the differences between standard Access and ADP applications. They use a nice example (movie theater) to describe working with forms und reports in ADPs.
