Sorry for the late reply, but I had to jump in after noticing this thread. The MySQL email lists is NOT a list where we flame other people for either the tools or databases they use! Instead we should try to be helpful to everyone and concentrate to solving problems! If a suggestion is not in your liking, then you should reply with a solution that you think would suite the original email better. If you want to compare products, then you should do it with verifiable facts, not with believes! If you say something is 'unusable for everything', then you have to accept that you are wrong if there is a single user that is happy with the product! About Access I can only say that it's very useful tool for a lot of people and there is a lot of places where it makes perfect sense to use Access. I don't claim it's a perfect reporting tool for all kind of reports, but depending on the requirements it may be the right tool for a specific problem/user combination. (I will not go into details as this is not important for this discussion; I am sure anyone with a little goodwill can come up with a scenario where Access would be a reasonable solution). I don't claim that Access is the right tool for the original poster (probably not as he is in this list). I just want that everyone that is trying to be helpful on this list should get the treatment and respect that he/she deserves.
