The how-to book of custom applications. With this book and Microsoft Access 97, organizations can use Microsoft Access 97 to develop effective information systems in less time, for less money. This volume was authored by Microsoft Access insiders with unique insight into the product and the full range of its potential. It's the one-volume reference that shows users how to automate tasks, do application programming, and integrate an intranet or the Internet. You'll see how to get the most from Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), the built-in, highly graphic, 32-bit programming language in Microsoft Access 97. And the accompanying CD-ROM contains great developer tools from Microsoft, plus all source code and files needed for creating the book's sample applications.
