1) probably	
2) Intermediate
3) I would buy both for exposure to concepts with which I am not familiar 
AND the accompanying ready to use code.
4) bound
5)  Personally I would like to learn more about using collections, multiple
form instances, your logging mehtod class, and inter-form messaging that you
mentioned.

From my standpoint I have reached the point where the books I buy have
specific solutions/techniques rather than "the wonderful world of Access"
tutorials that are more prolific than kudzu. I seem to be a big O'reilly
customer these days. John, one of my favorite Access books is the Access
Cookbook. It identifies a problem, discusses it and provides the solution. I
think this format is ideal for a framework book since it can be broken down
into digestable, ready to use chunks. It teaches the developer techniques
but also provides ready made code solutions. 

Regards,
Jim Hale

1) If I were to write and get published (available at your local bookstore)
a book on reusable code and frameworks, would you buy it?  
 
2) What is your vba skill level?  
 
3) What are your reasons for / against buying it?
 
4) Would you prefer bound or unbound forms?
 
5) What specific things would you like to see in the book?
