- So Far So Good!
This book has been extremely helpful while learning touse this program. Really takes you step by step through every single aspect of the program rather than leaving it up to you to fill in the blanks. Great for first time users.

- Very basic manual, not good if you need detailed information
This is a very basic manual, good if you are just beginning to learn the product, or have little training on it. I would not recommend it if you are wanting a book to help you write complex queries or create your own complex forms, reports, etc.
Rating: - Phew!
Much needed. I took a course (with no handouts). This book not only refreshed the memory and is a great reference, but also gave me some new tips.

I like the book. My Microsoft Applications class at college rushed through Access and I didn't understand it at all. This book really just makes everything simple and is full of helpful analogies.
