This looks like a good site to give you an introduction to access. I haven't been through it in detail but from what I have seen so far it seems good.

My favorite site for learning software is http://www.lynda.com/. They do have an online tutorial for MS Access 2003 and 2007. The tutorials run across about a dozen sections with mini-modules and the total time span is about 5 hours. The site allows you to view the first few modules for free to see if you like their style. To view the entire class, you purchase at least a one month subscription. The subscription gives you access to all of the 600+ classes.

One of my favorite book series for learning MS products is the Step by Step series. I have been able to borrow many of these books from my local libraries.

Just a quick note, as all the hard work finding resources has been done..

If you are a home user who just wants to keep a resonably small amount of data stored then it might be alot faster and a heck of alot easier to use Excel. Access is more designed for very large databases (as in business use).

Good luck!
