I would like to find books that are advanced with ACCESS formulas. Do
you have any suggestions. I want to learn all the advanced functions/
formulas such as =Switch, =IIF(And, and all the complicated formulas.

Now that you mention it, is there any hope for a new developers handbook?

Pete D.

P.S. This isn't a shot at any other books, I have many, just found the level
good for me.

I doubt it. Both Ken and Paul have gone over to .NET programming and
authoring. There really isn't anything that quite matches their books, but
the 2002 version is still appropriate for most Access programming.
