    Any book that explains splitting the Microsoft-access database in detail

    Hi,



    I am developing an access application which I plan to put on a network drive. This application will be used by 5-10 people. Some of my forms are bounded while some are not. I have sub forms as well which are obviously put on the bounded forms. From all the research I have done, unbounded forms are more efficient but demands more coding work. As a result, connecting them with sub forms which should get updated as soon as I move to the next record will be more complex.

    I have a very vague idea of ADO or DAO , Recordset, CurrentDb and the connection objects.


    I would like to read a book which properly explains the above terminologies. And it should ALSO PRIMALIRILY talk about the practices to follow when planning to split up the database on a network drive. Any suggestion?
