Re: "Access is really not that difficult."
Agreed. Constructing the tables is a snap. Normalization is a little trickier. Designing nice forms and reports is more of an art than a skill. The SQL for querying the data is usually the hardest part... by far.

That doesn't change the fact that I have no idea what the differences are between Access 2000 (the version I used long ago) and Access 2007. I need a good book. Maybe two.

De,
I can't say about yours . . .
But most Access books that I've bought and worked
through go step by step through building the
database. Creating the tables, making the forms,
Writing the queries . . . reports . . .

Access is really not that difficult.

Ummmmm . . .
This link is to a pdf for learning Access 2007 . .

And early at this link, there is a link to a 'CD'
of stuff that goes with the book.

Good luck and Good Hunting.
