    Can someone recomend a ground up VBA tutorial?


    I understand HTML very well. I understand database basic operating principles as I worked with a user level program for 2.5 years.

    What I need to learn more of is the basics behind controls and declarations.
    I have browsed through DataPig Technologies website and I have coded few things through trial and error. However, I don't always understand why I did this or that.

    Anyone have a recommendation of a Access library?

    Search it at Amazon.com and you will find dozens of books. Take a look at sample pages to see if it matches your expectations before buying. Some are more reference style and not as strong in the explanation.


    Also keep in mind you probably want an edition closest to your version of Access as there are alot of older books out there still circulating around.
