"This book
has extensive coverage of an area vital to Access developers and power users.
... Then the book covers VBA from the basics to in-depth advanced levels. It is
a worthy successor to the Access 2003 VBA Programmer's Reference and, in my
opinion, "raises the bar" for VBA books."

RibbonX Customizing the Office 2007 Ribbon
 RibbonX
Customizing the Office 2007 Ribbon
by Robert Martim, Ken Puls and Teresa Hennig
Order NOW from Amazon
From the fundamentals through complete examples for Access, Excel and Word,
this book provides the information and walks you through the steps to
customize and create Ribbons in all three programs.
In the words of one reviewer:
Everything about the Ribbon is new; all serious developers will need, and
many others will want, to know how to customize it, and this book tells you
how to do it. The authors have done a splendid job of explaining it all
without assuming any prior knowledge, guiding the reader through the jungle
of VBA and XML in three different applications. It is a huge subject and
different people will want different things from it; the book is packed (but
not cluttered) with clear cross-references so that you don't have to read
everything to get up and running with the particular thing you want to do.
No matter what your ability or experience you will learn from this book, I
already have. As computer books go, it's better than most, it's cheap, and
worth far more: buy it!

with SQL Server
SQL: Access to SQl Server
by Susan Harkins and Martin Reid
$34.97 -- 800 pages
Click book to see at Amazon.com
This is the first book of its kind! Microsoft Access uses a specific dialect of
SQL known as Jet SQL to communicate with the Jet Engine. This book shows you how
to talk directly to the Jet, bypassing the query design window. Why would you
want to? You can't really take advantage of all the Jet has to offer until you
can speak its language. The first part teaches you the rules and syntax you'll
need to master to talk Jet SQL. The second and third sections show you how to
upside an Access database to an Access Project and discusses some of the changes
the Access Developer will face when working with SQL Server, including Stored
Procedures, Functions, and Views. These sections are full of helpful hints and
warnings. Understanding Jet SQL opens new possibilities to more efficient
solutions that are easier to build than conventional methods allow -- once you
know the language.
