Purchase options and add-ons
This book covers introductory Access.
Move students beyond the point-and-click.
The goal of the Exploring series is to move students beyond the point and click, to understanding the why and how behind each skill. And, because so much learning takes place outside of the classroom, this series provides learning tools that students can access anywhere, any time.
Students go to college now with a different set of skills than they did years ago. With this in mind, the Exploring series seeks to move students beyond the basics of the software at a faster pace, without sacrificing coverage of the fundamental skills that everyone needs to know.

5.0 out of 5 stars Recommend
Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseAs a beginner to Access, I really enjoyed learning from this book. It provided guided practice steps & practice lessons, as well as more complex to comprehensive exercises.

4.0 out of 5 stars Few hard-to-read Figures blemish an otherwise useful MS Access introductory
Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseI have to agree with the statements about the Figures being too small. I rented the Kindle version, and it is still difficult to make out some of the text based, even when zooming in with the Kindle app. I am using the Kindle app for Windows and Mac, and everything is clearly visible except for some of the diagrams. I have attached a screenshot of one particularly difficult Figure, especially since there appears to be a typo in one of the entries even though it is difficult to see. I would imagine that it would be even more of an issue with the print edition. (I feel like this must be because the figures in the book are screenshot-images themselves, which would not scale like text in the e-reader.)
The content of the book seems to be good. The exercises are very easy to follow, and they don't leave out steps which might be obvious to some. For someone who has never used databases or MS Access in the past, this book seems like it would be a great introductory. I will post an update at the end of this semester if any of my feelings change.

2.0 out of 5 stars Shoddy Editing and Moronic Cost-Cutting
Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseThe exercises themselves are fairly easy to follow, but when it asks you to enter the data pictured in the book's figures, you'll lose your sanity. The text is far too small to read at any comfortable distance. This is series data entry we're talking about and the text is microscopic and blurry. No, it's not my eyes; 20/20 here. It's quite pathetic what textbook companies are willing to overlook to get a new edition out. If I didn't need this for class I would have burned it already.
