Hi Shamil and John Well, I did with only the MS developer manuals included with Access 1.x and 2.0 and later with that for Access 97. I haven't bought a single book on Access development ... the list members have been able to answer about 90% of my questions. /gustav >>> shamil at users.mns.ru 18-11-2004 12:39:28 >>> No, John :) The newsgroup was very active and these were very interesting times when everybody were equally unaware what MS Access is and to find a new application of a feature or how to better process a certain event was really helpful for quite some participants of this newsgroup... ...when I've first got ADH for MS Access 2.0 in 1995 I didn't find something really new to read from it...
