This is a good book for someone who is starting and wants to create simple databases, which of course will never be used.
As someone wrote earlier, this book is for parrots or monkeys. It shows you to click buttons.
However, Databases are complex and this book is no help.
We need a better book, which explains the details and at the same time is lucid.
I found that book to be the Missing manual by Mathew Macdonald.
Don't waste your money on Step by step. You can get a much superior product for almost the same price of SBS.

The step by step books are very helpful to me. When I am learning about new software, I need step by step instructions. They are detailed to help me, but not so detailed that I get lost.
 Missing information September 16, 2007

I don't think this book measures up to the previous books in the series.
For example, in Chapter 3 they talk about importing data from a sharepoint service. This takes almost two pages. The trouble is that they don't tell you where to start. The reader is left with a sense that this important stuff but s/he can't get to it. I've found examples of the same thing in Chapters 1-2. Seems like the book got ahead of the product it seeks to describe.
Basically, I've just put it aside and will wait for something better to come along.
A great getting started guide April 10, 2007

This was a great getting started guide. It will help an end users Access from just starting out to intermediate. If you're looking to become proficient at macros and VBA, this is just the tip of the iceburg, but will still make a good starting point depending on your experience with previous versions of Access. It's clear examples and companion CD make learning the material easy and straight forward. Unless you're already pretty familiar with access I recommend you follow along with hands-on. There's a lot to know about Access 2007, and you won't remember much without a little practice.
