Programming in Access

M

mjj

I am looking for an opinion. I am not familiar with the difference between
programming in Access and programming with VB and using an Acess DB. We have
an application in Delphi that uses an Access DB and would like to convert the
application over. What are the advantages of programmin in Access vs VB.

The form controls in Access are specifically designed to be used with
Databases. Visual Basic bound controls don't tend to work as seamlessly as
the ones in Access.

The downside, of course, is that all users must have Access installed in
order to use an Access application (although there is an Access run-time
available that can be packaged with your Access application and
redistributed for those who don't already have Access installed)
