Learning to use Access XP.

I want to learn more about how to use Access XP, so I thought a tutorial
might be a good idea. I searched the internet but couldn't find anything
decent.

Does anyone know of any free Access XP tutorial sites that will help me
learn how to use Access XP?

I hope you can help.

I appreciate any help or information given.

Thanks!

Its probably better to buy a For Dummies-type book for $20 from Amazon (or
wherever) than to "get what you pay for" online.

I suppose that you can check out microsoft.com/office to see if they have
some 'getting started' stuff.

In the meantime, try running some of the database creation wizards and poke
around to see what they do.

Have fun!

Sorry, Mike!

Forget the "Dummies" book!
Look for:
Mastering Access2002, Alison Balter, SAMs
Using Microsoft Access2002, Roger Jennings, Que Corp

The first will take you through Access by tutorials and examples. The second
will teach you the nuts and bolts.
