If my supervisors said that we where moving to access
I would show then the microsoft whitepapers stating access sucks for network use "Try and show them the light" and if they still choose access, the market for programmers is as good as what you have to offer I would rather look for a new job than put up with the shortcummings of access

once again this is just my option, I can be wrong

>>I been drawn into this discussion, and I just know by mere instinct that Access can't be compared with VFP, VFP to me is far more superior,(I been away from Access since I start using VFP about 5+ years ago), so, I turn to all of you that can give me an advice...
>>
>>There is any Information that benchmark the perfomance of both databases?
>>It seems that access as web data server is a very weird setting, it really is?
>>
>>At the corporate IT management here had the idea of VFP as an inferior database not worhty of keeping serving their intranet applications, they want to move to Oracle and Access, I'm fine with the Oracle part but I just can't where Access can fit here...
>>
>>I need argue and challenge this possition because I know that VFP is a very fine data tool for web development.

>>Thanks for you input.

>This is all kind of confusing... It sounds like you have VFP as your data server - and the IT management wants to move to Access and Oracle. I don't see any need to work with Access at all. Are you going to work with the Oracle data in Access or something?

>A logical progression for upsizing from VFP is Oracle or SQL Server... if they choose Access they are limiting themselves and going down in capabilities.
