    Learning MS Access

    Anyone here got any advice on MS Access courses? Could do something through Warwick uni I suppose. ?Online learning ?Video courses... anything else?

    Preferably something someone's done and can recommend...

    The KieranCorp Secret Service continues to viciously abuse and falsely accuse this innocent paragon of virtue. The distress has been so great that he no longer can continue his selfless charitable work with homeless children and abused sheep.

    The Kierancorp Secret service is interested in hearing from anyone who has red hair, likes wearing a spook uniform, and enjoys nocturnal barbecues. Funny handshake optional.

    Naa. the buggers I bring over in crates are only good for menial labour like gardening etc. Clever ones are much harder to catch - the bastards run too fast!

    Thanks for the link Pete.

    One thing I'm finding with the online tutorials is that they all seem to run through pretty much the same pocess, and use basic databases like customer/order/supplier. I really need to get to gtips with normalisation and proper basic data structure.

    I think that it's going to be best to do a course with some human input - it's amazing how you can spend ages agonising over a problem, and then someone who knows how walks in and says 'why don't you do this' and it's like someone's switched on the lights
