Assuming you are already proficient in Access, and that you are simply
looking for a book that covers database access in VB, then you might
go with "Teach yourself Database Programming with Visual Basic x.0 in
21 days". Sams Publishing, $39.99 (at least mine was).
The x.0 means pick your flavor, I still see the book in 4 and 5. There
are quite a few mistakes in the code examples but the book does a good
overall job of teaching you what you want, even briefly covering
Crystal Reports.
The 21 day disclaimer is laughable though. Teach yourself Fuzzy Logic
in 21 days is also available, if not somewhat insulting to those who
work with the technologies.
Hope this helps.
