Rating: 3 stars
Summary: OK,but...
Review: Although well written, this study guide is not on par with the others in the QUE series. I found four mistakes in the first ten lessons. For example, you would use Control+'(Apostrophe) to have Access repeat the data from the previous record's field, not Control+;.

Topics are not well organized as there are often references to areas that will be covered later in the lesson or indeed later in the book. The lack of a section covering macros is a definite drawback for those preparing for the MOUS exam and I agree with one of the previous reviewers complaints about the CD files being read-only.

Fine as a general reference and "How To", but as an exam prep I would pass.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: OK,but...
Review: I'm hoping to do my Access Expert exam in about 3 weeks and so far I'm quite disappointed with this book. The most infuriating thing is that the databases are read-only which means that you can't really practise the exercises they give you. However I've noted the previous reviewer's comment about switchboards and will prepare accordingly .

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great, but ...
Review: Of the many books I have on Access 97, this is one of the best. Not only does it prepare for certification, it also is an excellent reference and tutorial. The included CD-ROM is worth the price alone.

Summary: Between 3 & 4 stars, but there are no better books on market
Review: This book does an excellent job of explaining most of the exam requirements; however, there are a few suprises. You need a good working knowledge of Access or you need to search through other Access books for info on switchboards and macros before you attempt the exam. Good luck!

Summary: A good book - enough to get you through the exam, but ...
Review: This book is a nice, concise summary of MOST of the material you'll see on the exam (I passed it on the first try with just this book) - however, this book totally ignores "Macros", and there are at least three questions on the exam about them. My advice: read the book, study macros on your own, and you'll do fine !!
