Best way to learn VBA Access for free?

What's the best way to learn VBA Access for free?

I have no patience to sit by courses and listening to all things I know but the dummies in the class don't.

I'm looking for a website (hmm.. and free..) that is well organized and mainly it should be both "to-the-point" AND well-explained.

On microsoft.com you can learn nearly everything (I think), but I'll never finish over there; it's too long to read vs. too much time spending (and besides, my amount of "patience" doesn't allow it). I need something much much more "compact" then microsoft.com's learning.

?

See if this works for you:

Also, I have learned most of what I know by learning the basics and then having a couple of good books for reference and then relying on the forums.

Thanks Bob for the site, I'm starting to check it out.

Would you think that "having a couple of good books" would be a good decision, or today I can get them all online?

It all depends on what you like. I like having a book in hand when looking some things up instead of trying to read it all online. I do more online now than I used to but it is still nice to be able to have the book right there beside you. But if you have dual monitors then that kind of takes care of that.

Wow, Bob, you're so quick at help.

I have a huge screen and I'm quick in changing windows, so I think staying online would be my choice, unless there's a book that "has-them-all" short, and to the point.

Any preferred sites for good reference besides functionx?

Bob I took your advice.

I just finished 'glancing' and learning on functionx "Microsoft Access 2010" 37 lessons and "VBA for Microsoft Access 2007" 28 lessons.

I mainly needed it for Self-confidence
