This book takes the reader throught the creation of a database in Access up to advanced queries, advanced form design, switchboards and macros/command buttons. It also includes chapters on linking with Word, Excel and VB. It leans highly to the practical side of databases and is excellent in this respect. This book could be used as a practical tutorial for HIS. (Normalisation is covered in Chapter 1- not very well..)
