This is certainly not true.... Access is a desktop database with sever limitation in comparison to its larger brother in the Microsoft camp....Stored Procedures you have mentioned but what about Triggers, Views, superior backup / disaster recovery, Transactions, better logging, UDF's, greater number of SQL commands available., far far greater performance....Access cannot even be compared to SQL Server when it comes to that, it will win hands down.
Access also has sever limitations when it comes to file size and available options in the tables itself such as bytes per row, database size and object size. -----Original Message----- From: Ellwood [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 01 July 2004 22:21 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ cf-dev ] SQL compared to Access backend Other than database performance (which in my my experience is not too greatly different in either) the only real improvement between sql and access is stored procs (which are great).

I've worked in Access for 4 years. What can I expect to be different if I want to work in SQL? Most simple queries will stay the same, won't they? I know some functions may change, but what else?
