From the authors:

We wrote Accessible Access 2000 for people who were new to the world of building databases. In that book we tried very hard not to simply list everything that we knew about the product. Instead we tried to act as intelligent filters, presenting only the essential information that you need to get started.

We were delighted with the reception that the book received and have tried to keep the same philosophy for Accessible Access 2003. However, rather than simply reprinting the book with 2003 in the title, we have gone through it with a fine toothcomb. Every screen shot has been retaken and every section has been re-checked to ensure, not only that it still works, but also that it is actually still relevant. We have re-written parts where the product has changed and also added some. For example, there is a new section on Object Dependencies and a whole new chapter about Data Access Pages - helping you to put your Access database onto an intranet.
