You cannot put Access in the same category as Oracle, DB2, Sybase, MySQL, SQL Anywhere, PostgreSQL... etc...

Not even close.

Oh yes you can! Note that Charles said "designed"! The database is irrelevant if the *design* is poor (that's the point of MV - it makes that whole CLASS of DESIGN errors a lot harder to make).

We are going to have to agree to disagree here. It is very easy to mess up the design of any database, including MV. I have had my share of cleaning up horrible MV databases, especially with sub-values.

At the end of the day, it really comes down to the level of skill by the DBA and knowledge of the product at hand.

By the way. To anybody that thinks a flat relational database enforces relational integrity. Have you ever seen an MS Access database designed by an end user?
