What's your opinion on 2007? Is it worth switching from 2003? Is it buggy?
What are the benefits & drawbacks? Words of wisdom, folks?

What's your need? What is it that you would expect to be able to do with
Access '07 that you can't do with Access 2003?
I realize this is turning the question back to you, but why change if you
don't need to? Is your Access '03 application working?

A visit to the Office Online site http://office.microsoft.com might prove
enlightening as to content of Office/Access 2007; or just Googling on it and
seeing what turns up.
There are some nice new features in Access 2007. Whether they are
_compelling_ features is an individual judgement, based on your requirements
and environment. Quite a few databases still work fine in Access 2.0 and
would benefit little, if any, by being brought up-to-date by converting to
the latest release.
As with much new software that underwent substantial change, defects are
still being found and reported. Many of my business clients, who presumably
are getting their money's worth from their IT departments, don't even
consider installing new versions of software until at least the first
Service Pack has been issued. But, there clearly are others who were
waiting for one of the new features, and latched onto the new version at the
earliest opportunity.

I loaded it and was overwhelmed by all the weird menus.
Then it wouldn't load my 2002/3 apps easily and run them.
Next and I couldn't find a lot of the commands I use every day.
Bottom Line: I got rid of it and went back to Access XP
Go to there demo page and you'll see what I mean.
