Book or website?

[Mommio2]

Hi,
Could anyone suggest a book or a website that would tell a beginner
(me!) what all the items in the properties box of my form fields mean, i.e.
"on dirty", "can grow". "enter key behavior"? Thanks!

One of the best resources is available at the touch of a finger: even
with its (many!) flaws, the Access Help file has all this information.

Use the mouse or Tab key to put the cursor on one of the properties
you're curious about and press F1.

If you do want a book, I'd recommend my friend John Viescas' _Access
2003 Inside Out_. There are others but this one goes into that kind of
depth more than most.
