MS Access Crash Course

Cotta

Hi All,


I need to learn the basics of this application within a relatively short period of time (two weeks max), is there anyone in Belfast available to do 1:1 tutorials on this?


Thanks

Cotta

Any takers on this? I know it's a long shot.

Try YouTube to get you started off. Loads of tutorial videos there.

No idea of anything locally, but when I needed to learn a few years ago I just dived right in and made a complete hames of it.

If this is for a one off exercise I'd start by working on the structure of the DB offline. At least then you'll have an idea of the fields required and their relationships. This should make it easier to use the wizard in Access to at least get the basic DB in place, and as you get more familiar with it you can tidy up as you go.

I'd second the Youtube option mark proposed. Some very, very good instructionals on there.

Thats where i started.

As a package its pretty naff at error messages that are meaningful at times, but theres always someone out there on google whos had the same problem before you.

Get a book, get reading and playing.

The sort of tuition you are suggesting will cost a small fortune.

BT Training does 1- and 2-day Access courses. Generally very expensive though.

That looks quite good, have you used it?

I did some time ago and got the information I needed albeit it was a fairly basic requirement. I suppose it depends on what you need.
