5.0 out of 5 stars Way Beyond My Expectations!, May 31, 2000
By Daryl Sheffield (Hilliard, Ohio) - See all my reviews
I've spent a lot of money on training manuals that fell into one of two catagories: much to basic or way, way over my head. This book is neither. A beautiful step up from the 'Bible' series, Cary Prague once again opens doors in logical progression. I won't say it's a must read, Access 2000 Programming Weekend Crash Course is really a MUST EXPERIENCE.

1.0 out of 5 stars Access 2000 Programming - A Crashed Course, January 16, 2001
By "retsmsgt" (Salem, OR United States) - See all my reviews
I was very disappointed in this book! Within the Preface, Acknowledgements and the First Session alone there were miss-spelled and missing words, and references to applications that didn't work. Granted, it does say it that you must have Access 2000, but even with Access 2000 this book is more of a crash than a crash course. My recommendation.... look for information on Access 2000 elsewhere! You get what you pay for here.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't Waste your time on this book., September 7, 2001
By T. Tomany (Little Rock, AR) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Don't waste your time or money on this book. The authors should hang their heads in shame. This book WILL NOT teach you programming in 15 hours.

Even the CD-Rom that accompanies the books is a waste of time. The sample CheckWriter program didn't work correctly.

Learn Access in 15 hours? No way. The authors sound more like consultants trying to sell you a product than instructing you on the basic building blocks. Read more

This book is totally useless. It's more of a "I wrote a checkwriter program, you wanna see some of my code?" than a useful training manual. Read more
