You have concept mismatch there. YAML is a way (one of thousands) to store structured data. Like XML, or CSV, or JSON, or the binary formats used by databases. It's a file format. Access is a platform, as are Doctrine and Andromeda. File formats are generally interchangeable with a little work. If they wanted to, Andromeda could switch to JSON tomorrow. Changing platforms often requires restarting from scratch. Are you really asking if you should use Access, since it is so widely used? _______________________________________________ New York PHP Users Group Community Talk Mailing List http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk http://www.nyphp.org/Show-Participation
