Steven Roman's Latest: Access Database Design & Programming, Second Edition Published by O'Reilly
SEBASTOPOL, CA -- When using software products with graphical interfaces,
particularly a powerful database product like Microsoft Access', novice
(and sometimes even experienced) programmers are so concerned with how
something is done that they frequently overlook the core concepts and
techniques necessary to create effective database applications. For
Access programmers and power-users who want to really get under the
hood of Access, O'Reilly has just-released the second edition of the
bestselling book
Access Database
Design & Programming.
Access Database
Design & Programming, 2nd Edition covers Access' new
VBA Integrated Development Environment used by Word, Excel, and
PowerPoint; the VBA language itself; Microsoft's latest data access
technology, Active Data Objects (ADO); and Open Database Connectivity
(ODBC). But unlike other massive (some may say bloated) computer tomes,
Steve Roman's clear, succinct style gets to the point-thoroughly
delving into Access database design in 409 pages (including index).
A sample chapter, Chapter 4: Database Design Principles, is free online
at: http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/accessdata2/

index, author bio, and samples, see:
