I've got a client who is following my suggestion that they replace a set of excel spreadsheets with a database solution. They are looking at two proposals, postgresql solution or an Access solution. The requirements will include vpn connectivity from one site to another. It appears they will be going with the Access solution. I've got concerns regarding this based on research I've done that seems to indicate that Access, when used in a multi-user solution is easily corrupted. Does anyone have any knowledge/experience with such issues?
As far as I am concerned, Access is a bad joice if the data needs to be accessed from more than one application at the same time. But if Excel worked well enough and only one person is working with the data, then Access might do just well.
