VB question

[TotallyConfused]

I would like some advice please. I am trying to learn VB6. I was
recommended a very expensive book, Programming in Visual Basic 6.0. Before I
decide to keep this book. I would like to know if the practice/examples in
this VB book can be used in Microsoft Visual Basic Access 2003? Thank you
for any advice.

Sorry, I don't have a copy of the book, so I can't give a definitive answer.
However, the language components of VB and VBA are very similar. The major
problem you may run into is the fact that the controls available for forms
in VB are quite different that for forms in Access, to the point where many
of the examples will not work in Access.

BTW, there are some good VBA tutorials online.

Thank you very much.
