Visual Basic with Access

[Guest]

Hi,

I am looking for trianing with MS for visual basic as it applies to access
and developing forms with it. I have looked and many things come up but that
don't apply to access. Can you tell me where to start. In particular I have
a db that an engingeer designed and I need to understand his code and how to
add to the forms, tables and other things he has built by vb code. Help, I'm
pulling my hair out.

Assuming the database is an MS Access .mdb, is there any particular reason
why the db was built using vb code? The design interface screen (for forms
and reports in particular) is *much* easier to use than trying to use VB code.
I suggest you start there.

Try this book
http://www.amazon.com/Access-2002-Developers-Handbook-Set/dp/0782140114
It is the best Access book i've read so far, you can use it for Access 2003
as it is not much different from 2002.

I believe you will find that most professional developers use VBA
extensively. With experience, you will find that creating a functional
database application without it limits what you can do.
