I've had MS Office 2003 since it came out. I'm an advanced Excel user,
and it has pretty much done whatever I've needed it to do. But I've
never touched Access. However I wish to expand my skill-set and was
wondering if its worth my time to learn it. I work for a financial
services firm where we tend to be on Excel all day long. I read a few
of the Access versus Excel topics in these newsgroups. Based on what
I've read, I figured it can't hurt to learn a new tool. But I recently
stumbled across a webpage by a guy who does Excel consulting work who
says that you don't need Access as a database, and Excel is still the
way to go.
Here is the link: http://www.excel-vba.com/article-excel-access.htm
I am not affilated with the owner of the site, nor have I done any
business with him. Just wondering if his arguments (and claims) make
any sense to the hard-core Access users who might be reading this.
