Subject: [AccessD] My Book and Thanks


I just finished writing Professional Access 2007 for Apress. This is not an 
ad. I just wanted to thank the following individuals and this list in 
general for all the assistance I received when writing this book. from 
people reading and commenting chapters to individuals testing code to people 
who allowed me to reuse their code adn indeed in John and Drews case their 
class postings. If I have left your name out  forgive me. So in no order 
thank you to the following

John Colby for code and writing and trying to teach me about classes
Marty Connelly for amazing examples. and teaching
AD for permissions and being a gentleman
Drew for code and writing and classes
Rocky for permissions and review and being a friend
Shamil for code (GUIDs)
Steve for reveiw

Others whose code I have put into the book will see their name in print at 
some point in the book  and a big thank you to all. Many books begin with 
thanks and I could not have done it without you statements. In this case 
that is so true, I would never have finished this book where it not for this 
list and the unselfish actions of its many members.

Overall the book is my creation (with exceptions mentioned) I hope it is 
well received it took 8 months of work every evening and contains what I 
think are pointers to the direction Access is going. Its dosnt contain mind 
blowing code examples, nothing new or origional (excepts Marty Connellys 
example) but its my first book "alone" and personally whatever the amazon 
reviews say I will be proud of it. I cant of course forgot Susan Harkins 
whose fault this all is.

Finally in the immortal words of Rocky

"Yo Adrian I DID IT"
