By reading this book and following the practice exercises scattered liberally throughout the chapters, you can learn to develop powerful and innovative reporting solutions using Microsoft Excel 2003. This book�s step-by-step approach can help you steadily gain confidence in your ability to use Excel�s reporting functions as you enhance your skills by working through the hands-on examples.

You don�t have to know Structured Query Language (SQL) to get real value from this book. However, readers who are familiar with SQL programming will probably get the most out of it. Indeed, many SQL programmers find that Excel report development is the next logical progression in their technology education. Still, even if you are only an experienced user of Excel, you will learn a substantial amount about Excel reporting, especially in the earlier chapters where the graphical Excel tools are used to build SQL queries that run against external data sources such as delimited files, spreadsheets, databases, and data cubes.

If you�re new to Excel reports, you should start with Part I of the book. Advanced users who are already familiar with Excel�s reporting features and with external data sources can skip to Part II, where the core features, functions, and components of Excel reports are covered. The appendixes in Part III provide references for installing the NorthwindCS database, configuring your Windows operating system to display extensions for known file types, and using basic SQL.

This Book is for programmers and would-be programmers who want to lear Word 2003 Visual Basic programming as quickly as possible. I assume that you are fluent in useing Word 2003 as a word processor and want to learn the Visual Basic programming part of Word 2003 to help you become more efficient with your word processing tasks. It is preferable that you have some programming background but the concepts are explained at the elementary level so a beginning programmer should be able to follow and learn.

I firmly believe in learning programming through examples so this book is full of programming examples to explaing the concepts and techniques of programming Visual Basic. I expect you to try all the examples in this book and make the code work for you. This is how you learn programming. Learning programming by doing is fun and I want you to have as much fun as I have writing this book.

If you are developing databases for your own use, you may not mind opening forms or printing reports directly from the database window, and you know what query to run before printing which report or exporting data to Word. However, if you are planning to create applications for the use of others, particularly for clients who aren�t familiar with Access, and don�t understand databases in general, you have to do a lot more work, mostly in the form of writing VBA code to automate the application�s processes.

As a rule of thumb, it�s generally true that the easier the application is for the end user, the harder (and more time-consuming) it is to develop. In this book I concentrate on teaching you how to set up your tables and relationships to ensure that the database is properly normalized, and write VBA code to create the connective tissue that turns a bunch of tables, queries, forms and reports into a complete and coherent application.

This book is for experienced Access users who are familiar with creating Access objects and writing VBA code, but who need help transitioning from competent users/programmers to full-fledged Access developers.

The book is divided into three parts, each centered around a separate case application. The first shows best methods for building a relatively simple Access application using the developer's own data. The next section shows how to build a distributed application serving multiple clients and types of data. The chapters in this section cover each step in the application lifecycle � from gathering application requirements from clients to migrating data from legacy systems to the new Access database system.

The last section of the book shows how to build Access applications that work with other Office applications, inlcuding Word, Excel, and Outlook, as well as non-Office applications. These integration issues cover some of the thorniest problems an Access developer will face. Feddema's years of experience as an author, consultant, and trainer ensure that she can provide highly original solutions and workarounds.
