 Access 2000 VBA Handbook vis a vis Access 97 VBA Handbook

I have Ken Getz Access 97 VBA Handbook.
I realize that the Access 2000 version is two volumes.

Do I need to also get the Access 2000 VBA Handbook?
I'm running Access 2000 in Windows 2000 and, if needed, Access 97 in Windows
98.

They are excellent references.
You don't *have* to get them.
You may want to see if they wrote one for 2002. Might as well get caught up!

Keng Getz has stated there is new code in the books which also works
quite nicely in A97.   IIRC especially in classes but I sure could be
wrong.

    Howard,

    As Joe rightly said, you don't 'have' to get them, but I would suggest,
if you are likely to start using (or currently do use) SQL back ends, then
the Second book is a must for you. It's not just a re-write, it's one of the
most valuable reference books I own (then again, I own a lot of Ken's books,
and I have some 30+ various reference books for my job, ranging from, VB
thru Access thru SQL thru HTML/XML).

I have the Access 97 book and both volumes of the Access 2000 book, and I
would certainly consider them worth every penny and then some. Assuming that
there will be an Access 2002 book (I haven't heard, but would be very
surprised if there wasn't) I'll have no hesitation about buying that too -
even if it goes to three volumes! :-)

Agreed.  I'll buy the A2002 books sight unseen especially if it's
three or more volumes.  8:}}

There are a number of authors whose books I would buy sight unseen.
Ken Getz is one of them.
Dan Appleman is another.

Agreed.   I think I'd add Rebecca Riordan to that list as well as Any
Baron.   Hmm, for that matter any MVP at all.  <smile>

NO!  That would imply organization and planning.
