Nope, not true. You can make standalone applications using Access that don't require Access to be installed on the target machine. Not sure how the licensing works, but it is definitely possible. It just requires the Access run-time which you can get from MS according to this website:

Thank you for those suggestions, Ryan. I have used SQLiteExpert as well as SQLiteStudio. I actually like the latter. It has some interesting features such as cell-by-cell rollback and commit, the ability to add new rows to the bottom of a table regardless of where your cursor is at currently,

I'm a big time die hard fan of "text only". I'm an information consumer, and not someone who likes being distracted by meaningless visual effects. My Linux consoles are all (mostly) white on black, my 5-monitor Windows desktop looks like Windows 2000, and my 3-monitor work machine follows that

I think there are two different use cases for a mailing list such as this, and they're each better served by different access method; either email or forums. One use case is the individual with a long-term interest in a project/technology. Because of the long-term interest, an email list (which

I agree with Tim. I filter all my SQLite messages to its own folder and read as needed. I prefer this method to a forum as I can then keep the messages with me. I’m often off the internet and its good to have them for reading. Also I can look back through them and get hints and tips about
