[DUG] List working?

[Kyley Harris]

I think there is a lot of confusion about the topic. 
Are you comparing Access (front end multi purpose MS Office APP) with other
databases, or do you mean the MS Jet DB Engine?

Personally, not with a bargepole. All though Access as a front end is a nice
Prototyping tool.

If I'm wrong I'm sure you'll tell me, but any documentation from Microsoft I
can find about Access in a Client/Server or multi user environment is
referring to using Access as the front end and SQL Server as the data back
end, or suggesting you upsize to SQL Server.

In my opinion a software product that doesn't meet very high reliability 
  levels in its designers intended use is a poor product, If you are 
prepared to state that Access is a very reliable platform in multiuser 
environments I'd be interested, otherwise you might as well suggest a 
person with a stutter makes a very good news reader providing you listen 
carefully
