There are no reviews of that book as yet.

Have you tried online resources such as
Learning vba by Crystal http://www.accessmvp.com/strive4peace/VBA.htm
Function X (http://functionx.com/vbaccess/index.htm), or several good youtube videos?
Sites like DataPig, Techonthenet or http://allenbrowne.com/tips.html have many samples.

Why 2013?

Hi Jdraw - Yeh I've had a little look about YouTube but didn't really see anything comprehensive in the same sense of ExcelIsFun or what have you...

Had a (quick) look at those link's though, looks like there's some good stuff there, thanks very much

You are welcome. If you have something specific you are looking for, I suggest you describe it so readers can be more specific in their responses.

I don't know ExcelIsFun, but if it is vba oriented then much of the vba will be applicable to Access.

Good luck with your project. Incidentally, I bought a used book on Amazon(USA) last spring, very good condition and only a fraction of the original price.

jdraw - do you have any of the resource files for the Access lessons? (http://www.functionx.com/access/index.htm)

A lot of the files they refer to aren't actually there (not in the downloadable resources) which is annoying...

Long shot but thought Id ask, cheers.

Did you look at some o the associated pages?
eg http://www.functionx.com/access2007/applications/associates.htm

I don't know if there is a downloadable resource as such.
