Roman's book, Access Database: Design and Programming, is unique and indispensible for those whose introduction to database design is through the Microsoft product. Unlike the encyclopedic tomes that address the mechanics of building an Access database, Roman explains the thought behind databases in general and shows the reader how Access implements those thoughts. Next, he offers insights into MS VBA and the ActiveX Data Objects , using practical examples so that even the novice programmer can understand what Access is doing "behind the scenes". This is a book that can be read in a few hours to "get the main idea" and then serve as a ready reference as programming and development challenges are encountered. The person who will get the most out of this book is a person who has played around a little with MS Access and now wants to get serious about implementation. The concepts developed in this book will carry the careful reader through database development not only in Access, but also in more sophisticated database systems as well. |
