Microsoft Access for Windows Step by Ste
The Official Microsoft Courseware

Training yourself, your company, or your customers just got easier with
MICROSOFT ACCESS FOR WINDOWS STEP BY STEP--the official Microsoft
courseware from Microsoft Press.

This timesaving, cost-effective training package is the ideal self-paced
learning tool. Newcomers to the Microsoft Access database management
system and database management will be amazed at how fast they'll learn to
create and use a custom database. There's less downtime and lost
productivity because users can learn right at their own desks. It's the
perfect solution for today's on-the-go business-people.

Each of the 21 lessons is generously illustrated with real-world examples
and fully integrated with the practice files on disk. Readers can compare
their results and track their progress for each lesson. And because the
lessons are modular, beginners can complete the entire course from
beginning to end whereas intermediate users can pick up at any point to
learn specific skills. Readers will learn to use Microsoft Access to:

* Create tables and forms for convenient access to data
* Arrange and combine data to print sales reports, order forms,
  and mailing labels
* Ask questions and get answers by creating targeted queries
* Present data persuasively by using a variety of report formats
* Update hundreds of records instantly with one command
* Access data stored in other database file formats such as
  Paradox and dBASE

MICROSOFT ACCESS FOR WINDOWS STEP BY STEP is also easily adaptable for use
in an instructor-led classroom setting. Lessons can be easily customized
to fit the needs of a special software training curriculum in a
small-business or corporate training facility. Appendixes include printer
installation instructions, solutions to database design problems, and a
section on using expressions--what they are and when they should be used.
A glossary makes looking up terms easy, and the comprehensive index helps
students and instructors quickly find information on any topic in the
book.

Microsoft Windows operating system version 3.0 or later (version 3.1
recommended) and Microsoft Access database management system for Windows
are required. The book includes one 720-KB 3.5-inch disk and ordering
information for a 1.2-MB 5.25-inch disk. An instructor's guide and a
courseware development kit are also available.
