Books for beginners?
I have never used VB before but I need to import a lot of text files into access and the only realistic way to do it is using VB to semi-automate the process. Can anyone recommend me a good book to help me get to grips with VB?

Get a good Access book, one that covers VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) this should help you more than a visual basic book because it also covers Access.

Sites like www.mvps.org are helpful.
The online documentation in the msdn library is useful. You have a choice to make about your code, if you code your project within access using Access VBA, and you need to distribute your access db to other users, they will need the same version of Access installed on their computer. Or, you can use an external VB program that manipulates the access db from the "outside", doing all the importing. You can the distribute this app to others without the requirement for Access being installed.

heck, the biggest tip I could give you is to post your problem on the Access Help Forum that is a part of the ASP free forums (like this forum)
