This training course teaches experienced Access users about the greater advantages to be gained by combining the built-in features of Access with the programming capabilities of Visual Basic for Applications (VBA). The course is designed to give delegates a thorough overview of programming within the Access environment, enabling them to improve the functionality of their Access databases, whilst providing a useful introduction to VB programming.

Course Aims to enable delegates to:

Work with objects, use the Object Browser, identify collection objects, and use the Controls collection. Manipulate data by declaring variables, combine data by using expressions, get user input, create Sub and Function procedures, and call one procedure from another. Use decision structures and loop structures. Identify compile-time, run-time, and logical errors; use the debugging tools; and write error-handling code.
