VBA Developing
If you know BV.NET, then VBA is a piece of cake.
While in the VBA editor, open the help window.
Go to MS visual basic documentation --> Visual Basic Add-in model --> whatever you want to know about.
That will tell you about the diferences between VBA and VB (basicly just some added objects, methods, ect...).

I don't uses VB that often. Nevertheless, when I got assigned a project for a company that was all about windows technologies, I had to use Access and VBA. I found a book that was very helpful:
Alison Balters
Mastering Microsoft Office Access 2003, Sams Publications.
I think this is a very good introduction for programming savvy readers as it gives you a general overview of database programming in the context of Access.
If you HAVE to use Access, as I did, this would be my suggestion. Otherwise, look into MySQL and postgres.
***edit***
I forgot to mention that this is the only female technical author I have in my library.
