Access 2007: Application Development
Class Outline:
Description:
This course is for those who want to go beyond using the built-in features offered by Access and develop their own applications. The course starts with how to plan an application from the ground up, and how to make use of advanced form design, macros, and dialog boxes. The course also covers creating switchboards, splash screens, custom menu forms, and navigation groups. This course stops short of actual VBA programming, which is covered in Access 2007: VBA Programming.
