Can someone create a semi-sophisticated Access Application without using any
VBA at all??

As Chris O'C said, I don't do so -- though it may be interesting to see what
can be accomplished in Access 2007 with its "enhanced macros".

I have a friend and colleague however, who routinely did so, ten or more
years ago -- (1) an Access database to order and track food deliveries for a
major metropolitan school district's food service, used without incident for
nearly ten years, still in use I understand, while some company is creating
for them a modern, up-to-date replacement application (client-server) which
they haven't completed in the year-and-more that they've been working on it
and (2) a database for tracking and reminding the need for service, by lab
(some are "clean rooms") and machine, in a huge laboratory facility for a
large defense contractor, also used for about the same length of time, which
he's been called back to train some new staff, determine new requirements,
and enhance. As he's not especially talkative about his commercial work, he
may have others.

Regards,

Larry
