Do you have a link to an "official Microsoft statement" that indicates
"LightSwitch is a replacement for MS Access"? Comment/speculation in a
third party's website doesn't cut it.
Have you even bothered to look at LightSwitch? (From what you write, I
suspected you had not, but it may be that you just don't process information
rationally.) It has a very different model (or object model) and it doesn't
have end-user features and functions. I'd say that makes it an unlikely,
improbable candidate as a replacement.
On the other hand, its "visual" mode of development, based on dragging,
dropping, and connecting pre-made objects might be just about your level.
