Any recommendations on basic manuals for Access? I'm currently using an
Excel spreadsheet to track approx. 1000 pcs (lines) of correspondence in a year(approx. 28 fields/columns). I think that Access would get me better/faster/easier reporting. However, I have almost no knowledge of Access. Any suggestions? Thanks.

There is some online training on the microsoft website that I recommend:
Online MS Access Training http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/tr...829401033.aspx As you start building your database and run into specific questions, you can post them here and we will help you. If you explain the fields you plan to use and what type of reporting you will need, we can help you come up with a "normalized" table structure. You could post that in the "getting started" newsgroup, or the "tables design" newsgroup. -- Rick B "cestbarb" wrote in message ... Any recommendations on basic manuals for Access?
