Thanks for the info. My company designed an application to track applicant information. When it first was proposed I said Access wouldn't be able to handle the workload. My prediction came true after a couple of months. Now they want to redesign it using Visual Basic. I believe they will use the jet engine again believing that Visual Basic is going to make a difference. Guess it's time to put my physic ability to work again.
