Now this is one of the finest summations of Access 2007/2010 I have read.
You are totally correct, the product often looks, acts and feels like it is
still a beta version.
If you are just using Access as a giant spreadsheet it is generally ok, but
actually developing stuff on it is another story - at least that has been my
experience.

The Nav Pane is a giant leap backwards - sure it has some new functionality,
but those feature could have been added to the older style layout which is
far more useful to use.

Cheers
Darryl.

Someone put a gun to your head ? ;)

That being said, it sure is great for end-users,
But because they modified VBA, the bugs are numerous and nasty.
With SP1, you've got to decompile your VBA project daily....sometimes more.

It's very obvious there was very little beta testing of this product by
developers.
