Microsoft Access 2000: MOUS Cheat Sheet

This book does not teach Access 2000. Do not buy this book as a reference guide for Access. As another reviewer commented this book can be judged by its cover. I am an experienced Access user (and programmer) and bought this book because I wanted to become MOUS certified. I did not know what to expect on the exam so I took a gamble with this book (I passed with ~980/1000).As an experienced user, I was able to gloss over most chapters, but it was instrumental in identifying some of the features of Access that I forgot existed or did not know about. Each chapter test was very well written and did test for knowledge. In hindsight, the tests mirrored what was actually in the exam. After going through the entire book, I just reviewed the few areas I needed refreshing on and passed the test with ease.

I passed the test with a 978 out of 1000. There was only one question that I didn't remember finding in the book. The topics are short and concise while still covering the information fully. The book comes with highlighted sections that are a real plus in addition to the practice CD.

I just took the MOUS Access 2000 exam today and scored 826; required score 790. I think that says it all about this book. Thanks to the authors - I love you!! I am on my way to order "Cheat Sheet" books to prepare for MOUS Excel, PowerPoint and Word certification exams.
