This is certainly true.  I tried to use VBA (Access / VB) to automate SQL Server and it was a PITA 
and never really worked.  OTOH I do that now with C# and it is simple beyond belief.  Additionally, 
I use threads to cause several distinct but related SQL Server automation processes to run 
simultaneously, something that just flat isn't possible with Access / VBA.
