Access 2007 is vastly different in many ways from Access 2003, such as the revamped user interface that uses “ribbons,” among other differences. However, Access 2007 VBA has not changed a whole lot since the prior versions of Access. The VBA interface for Access 2007 still uses the same old user interface as before, not the ribbons that Access 2007 uses. The VBA language syntax has not changed very much either. Even if you are using a prior version of Access, you can still gain a lot from this book. However, there will be some examples that deal with features only supported in Access 2007.
