Very well written and presented...
This is my second book on Access. I find this book to be very well written.Many users are complaining about examples that don't work. I think this is intentional on the part of the author. I look at it as an impromptu test. Any good instructor will give you periodic exams.Look at the examples that don't work as exams.

Do Not Buy This Book
This could have been a good book, but Query by Form does not work as described in the book.Page 395indicates that you can choose the Remove Filter/Sort command in the Records menu... and all records are displayed.Not true.Also,automated filter removal using macros (chapter 9) and DoCmd(chapter 18) do not work. You cannot drag Customer ID from the field list to the form, it is not in the list using the database on the supplied CD.Too many errors and omissions to be a usefull book.

A book for desperate times
This is not a good book to cuddle up with. I am a not-so-newbie with Access and when I had a difficult problem it was this book that saved me.There are two kinds of difficulties I have with Access: the obviousproblems whose answers are staring me in the face, and the non-intuitivenit-picky boring problems that last for a week.This book is for thesecond type of problem

Not as good as it could have been
When I flipped through the book in the store, it looked pretty good, better than the other book I looked at.(Access 97 Power Programming)Unfortunately, once I got down to using it, it left a lot to be desired. The main thing I was hoping for was a good, in depth, lesson on DAO.Theexamples are about on par with the ones in the online help,ie. they coverthe trivial case, but don't really help with more typical cases. Also, asmentioned by someone else, there are far to many typos, especially in theexamples.I didn't come close to trying every example, but there wereseveral that didn't work as printed. Finally, why were the tables andappendices put on the CD instead of in the book where they belong?For thefirst day I had the book, I couldn't look at any of the tables, since mycomputer at work doesn't have a CD-ROM drive. All in all, it's not a badbook, but I can't recommend it at its full retail price.By the timebookstores are blowing it out cheap, it'll be 3 versions out of date, sothere's really no reason not to buy something else.

very good
It's a good book, but i think it could be better if you don't be so tecnical ... Read more

chance in a rapidly more linear world
Within this book are the best quotes from Novalis in the original German, and translated into English. The poet's perspectives on chance and non-linear reality are clearly articulated. As Novalis was studying what was essentially modern science, his groundedness in German mysticism is even more startling. Only Jacob Boehme takes the imagination further. However, the choice of quotes and the explications of their mysteries, in this volume, are very insightful. I've owned the book twice (gave it away once!). ... Read more

Product Description
Die deutsche Romantik gilt gemeinhin als Überwindung der abstrakten Ich-Philosophie Fichtes. Dieses weitverbreitete Muster differenzierend beweist die vorliegende Studie, daß das philosophische, naturwissenschaftliche und poetische Werk des Novalis auf genau diejenigen Probleme des Subjektdenkens antwortet, die Fichte zu einer Vertiefung seines eigenen Ansatzes bewegt haben. Kongenial greift Novalis transzendentalen Ansatz seines Lehrers auf und nimmt damit zugleich in einigen Punkten dessen spÄte Wissenschaftslehre vorweg. Der Romantiker par excellende ist ein Fichteaner. ... Read more
