The following books are my personal recommendations for all levels of Access database users and developers.
Enjoy!
It covers versions from 2000 through to 2010 which has some very interesting and new powerful features. Beginner or not, there is something for everyone and Microsoft now encourages developers to use Access macros as the first choice option to automate your database.
This is a great book for beginners. It takes you through from the very beginning without too much jargon 'computer' talk and adds a little humour to your learning.
This is one of my favourites and is a starter recommendation for my students.
Get the Access 2010 information you need to succeed with this comprehensive reference. If this is your first encounter with Access, you'll appreciate the thorough attention to database fundamentals and terminology.
You’ll want to keep this soup-to-nuts Access reference close at hand!
This book provides you with the tools and techniques you’ll need in order to build more sophisticated solutions. After walking through the features of Access 2007 VBA, you’ll learn all about object–oriented programming and ADO. Two comprehensive case studies presents you with the hands–on experience in building real–world solutions using the concepts covered in the book.
It's the one I use as a reference for VBA students!
