It'll get you there, eventually, sort of., 2002-01-06
MOST of this book except for exercise 2 in chapter 1 which uses PivotCharts as well as the previously added PivotTables. The instructions are unclear about several points having to do with the fact that they seem to want you to copy both from their instructions and from their illustrations and the two are mixed and switch from one place to the othe with little warning. I found this inconsistancy an unneeded source of potential confusion. Still, it does layout the basic operation of Access. I'm only on Chapter 2 but I hope they later explain how to filter form field inputs ourselves instead of just looking at the ones they already did for us. They act like the ability to filter is some big deal and not a basic function, I don't need a sales pitch I need instructuions. I skipped lots of those exercises. They also fail to indicate where buttons (Query butons aren't indicated in any illustrations) are then they tell you to use it. I'm still not sure which query button they are referring to most of the time.
