[AccessD] FMS Inc. Sourcebook

I had the 97 and 2000 versions of their sourcebook and never thought it
was worth the price.  The .Net product may be better, but I wouldn't
count on that.  I generally copy and paste my own code from the MS
CodeLibrarian or something similar, when I'm not scavenging for ways to
do something totally unfamiliar.

Sad

...I have a great deal of respect for FMS and most of their tools ...but
their source book is just a compendium of code solutions in a nice
little code library ...all of which are readily available to you right
here or in our archives ...often with better explanations and
alternative solutions ...I have their source book for '97 and just never
really used it that often because AccessD was always quicker and better
imnsho ...and thus when I upgraded some of their other tools I didn't
feel source book was worth the extra cost ...others here may differ
...and my opinion is worth exactly what it cost you ...hth.

...btw, they have a small collection of free tools for A97 on their site
that they've never upgraded ...but if you dl them and look at the
source, they are easily fixed to work with A2003.
