Does anyone have any suggestions on the best way to learn access? I know
nothing at this point, but must learn it. I was at the same point last month
with excel and found this site:
http://www.learnmicrosoftexcel.com/free_tutorials/free_tutorials_with_video.htm
I paid $14.00 for the cd and learned excel in less than a month. Mike Smart
created this cd for someone who knew nothing about excel and it was great! I
need something like that. I bought Access 2007 video from Alison Balter and
soon realized that video series was for someone that was already familiar
with access. I bought " Plain & Simple" office Word book and that worked for
learning Word, but I already had the basics for Word. I need something very
basic to learn Access, any help would be appreciated!

Here are a couple of paces you might start:

When I started using Access 13 years ago the first book I bought was John
Viescas's 'Running Microsoft Access' which I found to be an excellent and
comprehensive general purpose primer. Take a look at the following Amazon
link for its latest incarnation as 'Microsoft Office Access 2007 Inside Out':

http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Office-Access-2007-Inside/dp/0735623252/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1266423324&sr=8-4


From the reviews it looks like it would fit the bill.

Here are some resources. My friend John Viescas' _Inside Out_ book is
certainly a good choice, but there are lots of others. If you have a good
bookstore accessible you might want to spend an hour just looking through a
stack of books on the program to find one that fits your learning style. Here
are some links:

Look at what Video Professor has. Several of my customers have used this and
rave about it.
