| Microsoft Access 2003 is a powerful database application that allows you to build standalone and client-server database applications. Access applications are used in many enterprises for storing inventory and maintaining customer records, sales data, or nearly any other type of data that needs tracking. Access has powerful wizards and tools that make it relatively easy for users to build a database application. However, such databases must often be expanded to include additional features not supported by the simple design provided by the wizards. VBA is a powerful programming language that can be used in Access applications to expand the functionality in ways you never imagined. If you are hoping to take your current Access databases or future databases to a more robust level of functionality, then Beginning Access 2003 VBA is the book for you.
This book assumes you have created Access databases in the past that have tables, forms, and possibly macros. You may have even written some VBA code in Access before, or you may have experience with Visual Basic or VBScript and want to learn how to write VBA code from within Access applications. No prior experience with VBA is required. As long as you have the ability to create Access tables and forms and the desire to learn VBA, this book will have a lot to offer you.
It is very possible that you have realized limitations with your current Access applications and now desire to build more sophisticated solutions. For example, your current application may need additional features that must be programmed with VBA. Because your application has been a great success, it may have outgrown its current design and may need improvement to support more users or a client-server environment. Or, you may want to begin creating your new database applications with expanded functionality. The tools and techniques covered in this book will teach you how to take your Access applications to the next level.
Written by an Access programmer with more than 10 years of VBA experience, this is the perfect guide for Access users who are ready to take their databases to the next level, or for programmers who are new to Access or VBA.Ð Veteran Access developer Denise Gosnell shows readers the ins and outs of Access VBA and provides plenty of source code, and fully developed sample applications to guide you along the way.
Not only do readers learn to build “stand-alone” desktop applications, but readers also learn how to integrate Access applications with Web Services, and SQL Server. |
