Book Reviews of Expert Access 2007 Programming (Programmer to Programmer)
Book Review: The Eureka Moment
Summary: 5 Stars
Most of us have experienced that wonderful feeling of recognition when we finally discover EXACTLY what we've been trying to find for a long time. That's sometimes known as the "Eureka Moment". For me, opening Expert Access 2007 Programming for the first time qualified as one of those moments.
Actually, the book has produced several more such moments since then, starting on page 9 where Rob and Mike present a table listing the ProgIDs for all of the Office applications, along with a brief explanation as to why you need that information (you need the ProgID to use late binding in your code).
Over the years, I've read a lot of code samples showing one or another ProgID in use, and I've read a lot of discussions on the benefits of late binding. However, as I read that list and the paragraph supporting it, it occurred to me that this was the very first time I've seen all of the Office ProgIDs listed in one place. Mike and Rob recognized the value of presenting them in a comprehensive way and included this table in their book, and that impressed me. They get it.
Of course, ProgIDs are not the most complex of concepts, and you might find similar list somewhere else (although I haven't seen one yet). The point I'm trying to make is that Rob and Mike obviously have a good feel for the kind of information and explanation intermediate and advanced developers will find useful as they work towards becoming Access experts.
Mike and Rob have written a book which is long on technical detail on subjects ranging from incorporating API functions in your code through creating and using class modules right through to customizing the new Office Ribbon. But, in my opinion, what is just as important about the way they approached this book is that they took the time to explain why you need to know this stuff, and when and where you'll be able to use it in your own development.
This one has earned a permanent spot on my desk, right next to the keyboard.
