Description

Access Database Design & Programming takes you at the back of the details of the Access interface, focusing on the general knowledge necessary for Access power users or developers to create effective database applications. When the use of software products with graphical interfaces, we incessantly focus so much on the interface that we omit about the general concepts that allow us to understand and use the software effectively. In particular, this book specializes in three areas:

  • Database design. The book provides an enjoyable, informative overview of database design that carefully shows you how to normalize tables to eliminate redundancy without losing data.
  • Queries. The book examines multi-table queries (i.e.,more than a few types of joins) and shows how to implement them not directly by the use of the Access interface or directly by the use of Access SQL.
  • Programming. The book examines the VBA integrated development environment (IDE). It then goes on to provide an excellent introduction to Data Access Objects (DAO), ActiveX Data Objects (ADO), and ADO Extensions for Data Definition and Security (ADOX). These sections serve as a handy introduction and primer for basic database operations,such as modifying a table under program keep an eye on, dynamically adding and deleting a record, and repositioning a record pointer. The concluding chapter specializes in common programming problems, such as computing running sums and comparing two sets.

Unlike other Access books that take the long, detailed approach to every topic of concern to Access programmers, Access Database Design &Programming instead specializes in the core concepts, enabling programmers to develop solid, effective database applications. This book also serves as a ‘second course’ in Access that provides a quite experienced Access user who is new to programming with the incessantly overlooked techniques necessary to develop successfully in the Microsoft Access environment.Anyone interested in learning Access in depth, somewhat than just scraping the surface, will enjoy and benefit immensely from reading this book.
