Bret,

>The best source I know for Access programming is the Developer's Handbooks by Litwin, Getz, et al. published by Sybex. There are "desktop" and "enterprise" volumes for Access 2002, and none for Access 2003, which has the same file format and few new features. Unlike most Access books, they are actually written for developers. A lot of Access programmers swear by them. The books have their own website at http://www.developershandbook.com/

Thanks for your very detailed answers. Very helpful.
