VFBA is probably best suited to mimic the "look and feel" of Access. I had a beta a while back (build date 04/01/97) and it started choking on tables that had more than 20,000 records, just like Access. It also seemed to have similar performance traits as Access when more than 4 or 5 users attempted to utilize the application at the same time. Unfortunately, Visual FoxBasic for Applications has suffered from a curious lack of marketing from Microsoft. I've started to suspect that this apparent snub might be due to reports of a horrible new macro virus which can attach itself to your database tables. -- Colin
