Hello all

Been using access for about 6 months now and working on an MRP program (see Queries question MRP database) and would like advice on a good VBA book to learn the basics. Thanks for your input.

I can remember being a total beginner. I found that most books dealing only with access kinda did not give me enough information on the background of tables, databases, and what was really happening.

Whilst it is getting old a number of people would agree with me that this book is still relevant for learing

http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Acc...=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1277366530&sr=1-1

I pick up this book all the time when I have problems with efficiency or SQL updating problems. I wish they would bring out a new edition for 2010. I would buy it in a flash even though I neither have Access or SQL Server 2010 to use.

Yes, a GREAT guide (I have a copy and know one of the authors - Mary Chipman).
