Excel or in Access to develop small utilities for my self.

I would be greatful if anybody can let me know study material which shows

Naresh,

It is confusing, but the word 'macros' as used in Access means something
quite different from what it means in Excel. In Excel, it refers to a
VBA procedure, whereas in Access it is something else entirely. In both
cases, though, the general purpose is the same - to automate aspects of
the functioning of the worksheet/database application.

Can you give an example of the kind of thing you have in mind, when you
talk about "small utility"?
