Gaining Access

I'm continuing to wrestle with the revamp of my financial software. I've scrapped everything and gone back to the beginning twice now, as my attempts to implement my ideas failed in multiple remarkable ways. I've finally managed to get a handle on some simple aspects of VBA coding, which... prompts me to restart yet again, but with serious hopes of avoiding the pitfalls I've been hitting. (No doubt I will find new ones....)
I've also ordered a programmer's guide to Access VBA 2010. I really dislike the online help that Microsoft Office supplies; I need something solid I can flip through. (An e-book would be acceptable if I had an e-reader, but being confined to the links and whatnot dictated by MS just drives me bats.)
I'm still optimistic, if guardedly so, that I can get a barebones version of the software up and running before I leave for the holidays.
:looks troubled for a moment before remembering:
Oh, yeah! Happy Thanksgiving to my USAn friends!
