From the Back Cover
As the most popular database system in the world, Microsoft Access is used by millions of people and supported by hundreds of thousands of Access developers. The 2007 version marks the largest release of Access in five years. Written by design engineers on the Access test team at Microsoft, this book introduces you to the many new features of Access 2007 and shows you innovative ways of looking at old problems such as automation, debugging, and deployment.
The authors break down the book into four parts—programming Access applications, data manipulation, interacting with the application, and finalizing the application—in order to walk you through the important steps of creating a full-featured application. They also provide you with in-depth examples that require only minor modifications and then can be easily implemented in the real world. You'll quickly learn how the 2007 version makes it simpler to write quality Access applications with XML, C#, and other .NET languages that are actually fun to write, feature rich, and easy to use.

The book is written true to Rob and Michael's form: The content is clear and the information useful. I enjoyed discovering new "toys" in the debugging chapter, and the error logging code is a gem that will be utilized in deployed applications. Going through the Add Advanced Functionality to Forms and Add Advanced Functionality to Reports chapters was like walking into a candy store that carries your long lost favorite childhood candy -- a joy. The ribbon chapter enhanced the knowledge I had prior to reading it. I was first introduced to Ribbon customization while listening to Rob [passionately] presenting the topic in an Access developers' group, and this chapter built on that presentation.
If you want to get a book that will expand your knowledge on Access programming, this is the book to buy. Access 2007 Programming is a well worth resource to own.
Chapter 6: Using SQL to Retrieve Data and Manipulate Objects is very informative and will help the developer learn how to best use SQL to make an application more efficient.
The book is a great value and a great addition to any Access users library.
