DougF, I don't know which version of Access you have been exposed to, but from what you say, I think you have run way over to the far side.
Access97 is pretty stable in a single user environment, but not for shared applications. Access2000 is a _lot_ better in this respect. Take the AutoPug as an example; it has been up and running for about two years without any need for maintenance. cheers, Jostein On 9 Sep 2003 at 23:52, Doug Franklin wrote: > On Tue, 09 Sep 2003 09:22:49 -0400, Mark Roberts wrote: > > > Is there anyone on the list with Access experience who can answer some > > questions? > > There's only one question that matters when Access is involved.
