Good VBA for Access instruction book?

77 New Member
Hello Everyone,

I am trying to teach myself a little more about VBA for Access, can anyone recommend a good book for this. (At this point I've read Access VBA Programming for dummies, but I didn't find it very useful).

Thanks,

The visual basic editor's help files are excellent. You can use the search function or if you highlight a word in the editor and press F1, it'll bring up articles and examples on how it is used.

One thing about events though it you have to highlight just the event name, not the whole sub name.

For example. To find out more about the After Update event of a text box called txtName, you would highlight AfterUpdate of Private Sub txtName_AfterUpdate() and press F1.
