Morning all,

I've found over the years that this newsgroup is an absolute fountain of knowledge and I have been able to use heaps of stuff in the databases I've written. Personal knowledge and experience can never be properly put into a text book.

I need to extend my reference material further and was wondering what resources people recommend. The most recent publication recommended is Microsoft Access Version 2002 (or 2003) Step by Step. However, do others know of, use and recommend anything else. Obviously nothing beats getting in, having a go and seeing what happens but having a good resource library is a good backup.

Buy a good book on the design and implementation of relational
databases. Preferably one that has nothing to do with a Microsoft
application or any other database product.
