Access Database Design & Programming takes you behind the details of
the Access interface, focusing on the general knowledge necessary for
Access power users or developers to create effective database
applications. When using software products with graphical interfaces, we
frequently focus so much on the interface that we forget about the
general concepts that allow us to understand and use the software
effectively. In particular, this book focuses on three areas:
Unlike other Access books that take the long, detailed approach to every
topic of concern to Access programmers, Access Database Design
&Programming instead focuses on the core concepts, enabling programmers
to develop solid, effective database applications. This book also serves
as a 'second course' in Access that provides a relatively experienced
Access user who is new to programming with the frequently overlooked
techniques necessary to develop successfully in the Microsoft Access
environment.Anyone interested in learning Access in depth, rather than
just scraping the surface, will enjoy and benefit immensely from reading
this book.
