I'm looking to purchase an Access 2002 book for the office as a reference. No one here is a power user, we have a mix of beginners and intermediate level and we do a mixture of creating databases from scratch and using Access to review data from other systems, particular large accounting system. We probably do more of the second work than the first. So, I've been perusing the books over on Amazon and we want more of a reference guide than a training book, so it looks like it might be one of the following 2 books. Access 2002: The Complete Reference (Book and CD) and Microsoft Access Version 2002 Inside Out (with CD ROM) The Microsoft Access Version 2002 Core Reference appears to be a little advanced for what we want. Does anyone have any experience with either of these books or can suggest another choice?
