[AccessD] The list

Hi Jim,
EE's marketing is fairly aggressive. They can be as its a to pay to play
site. Many people (I was one) think that if you pay for something it's going
to be better. Also in today's world I think the younger people aren't as
interested in email based lists as they are in forums. I'll never understand
this as I can get email responses on my phone much easier than having to go
to the website. When we discussed doing DBA forums a few years ago we got a
resounding NO from our listers. And as I've implied before, nothing wrong
with using more than one source!

John,

 Guess it depends on which ones you look at; saw one this morning about
problems with Access 2003 under Windows Server 2008 R2; I'm sure interested
in that.  There have been a multitude on running Access in 64 bit Office,
which is quite relevant as are those regarding SharePoint.

 And there are questions on SQL, programming techniques, classes (always
think of you of course), etc., all the time.   Some are quite simple and
answered by Google monkeys, but many are not and answered by some very
knowledgeable Access folks.   

 Honestly many of you knock it, but none of you that I'm aware of outside of
gustav has really given it a go. But there's no doubt in my mind that the
range of questions is far greater then those here and certainly the volume
is greater.  Also the ability to upload DB's, screenshots, etc is very
helpful.

  Chatter there however is only allowed in the lounge and one discussion
thread we keep open for Access.

Jim.

LOL, and not a single one that I am remotely interested in.  OTOH I just
responded to a friend on this list.  Yea, it was just chatter.  Oh well.
