Even with all the newer versions of this book out, this one is still the best when you want to cut to the chase. Without a lot of fanfare it tells you exactly what to do, with just enough pictures to let you know you're in the right place. It's filled in a lot of blanks, and I'm now ordering the Access 2000 version.
