I can't comment on inheritance issues, but since C# is sooo much like Java,
my guess is yes... and as with all  your previous versions of Access, what
do you expect, for it to be backward compatible ;o)

: AFAIU MS Access/Word/Excel VBA programming from within MS
Access/Word/Excel
: IDEs seems to be already marked as "must die" at MS:
:
: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/productinfo/roadmap.asp
:
: This should happen with arrival of .NET Framework 2.0 and VS.NET for Yukon
: in 2004 and Office12 or later?...
:
: <<<
: Office programmability. The tools and components within Microsoft Office®
: are widely used as a foundation for smart client application development,
: and "Visual Studio for Yukon" will seek to unify the programming
experience
: between Visual Studio .NET and Office. "Visual Studio for Yukon" will
: deliver support in the Visual Studio IDE for Office development, while
: simultaneously continuing support for the popular VBA development
approach.
: With "Visual Studio for Yukon" the full breadth of Microsoft Office will
be
: available for the first time to developers using Visual Studio .NET.
: >>>
:
: IMO it looks like they at MS plan to remove ALT+F11(VBA programming
support)
: from MS Access/Word/Excel IDEs completely moving it to VS .NET. Are these
: good or bad news? IMO their approach to unify .NET and VBA progamming
: under/within VS.NET is a right step forward. And with arrival of such
: architecure MS Word/MS Excel macro viruses' problem will be solved
: automagically...
:
: Of course I can be (completely) wrong with my guessing based on the
roadmap
: info referred above.
: We will live, we will see...
