Hi Folks
I have been developing in A97 for a really long time now. I build specialist
apps that work over a network with a few users (almost always less than 10)
and need to build secure installs.
A97 and DAO has served me well with SageKey scripts and Wise installer, I
get to deliver excellent installation packages - had no DLL HELL challenges
at all since using this set-up package.
My question is, what would be the up and down-sides to upgrading to the
latest version of Access?
Can I still secure my apps and protect the code?
Is there a runtime library for installations?
Can I build an install package within Access (is there a developers
toolkit?)?
Can I use ADO to build links to several different types of back-end?
(currently my apps can connect to MSSQL, Jet and Oracle with little
tweaking).
What's the most radical change I am likely to struggle with in the upgrade?
Appreciate any feedback.
Cheers
