I am Very very new to Access. Where I would like to start would be with a
tutorial, but I have no idea of even that. I can say I am very good with
excel (even teh math functions, etc), word, power point, but to me, access is
completely different. The only thing I have used that comes close is Data
Base III (dBase III). which was 17 years ago.

I have look at the "examples" from MIcrosoft, but need something a little
more involved with creating the tables, queries, etc.

Can anyone make a suggestion?

Also, I am open to any and all suggestions

Well... unfortunately in my experience, expertise with Excel can actually
require that you UNLEARN some of the ways "things are always done", because
although an Excel spreadsheet and an Access datasheet may look very similar,
they are utterly different.
