Post #187,884 by inthane-chan 12/22/04 5:38:40 PM Reply	That might change. Access, more and more, is becoming a pretty front end GUI for SQL Server, especially now that MSDE has been released. I wouldn't be surprised to eventually see the Access database component boil away entirely eventually, and use MSDE instead.

Post #187,887 by ben_tilly 12/22/04 6:28:24 PM Reply	Not unless VB is integrated with SQL server There is a lot of legacy Access code out there that uses functions written in VB from within SQL. Can you do that in SQL server?

Not the same thing though, in regards to supporting legacy Access code. -- Chris Altmann
