Here is an example

SELECT  MAX(TableID) AS TableID
FROM            TableName

In access that will die.  Something about recursion of the table or some
crap

In every other DB i have worked on it has no problems doing it

This is only my opinion - but MS ACCESS (of any variety) should not be
used for any production website.

Having said that - I do realise there are small systems that cant afford
anything else.

It really comes down to a "cost" thing.  But mySQL or postgreSQL is still
a better alternative to MS ACCESS for production systems.

If you are only wanting to "play" then MS ACCESS is fine - but there are
still some gotchas that can teach bad habits with MS ACCESS (just cant
remember what they are now because I have not used it for web stuff for
some time).
