[AccessD] AccessD never changes

Hi Jim

My son is  now at college Knowledge Management with Business.

Latest book. Been talking with the publisher about MS Dynamics CRM 2011 but still at an early stage. More an ego trip again as opposed to a business you could live on.

Hi Martin:

Can't spell?...your profession but be either that of a Doctor or a programmer...it comes with the territory. Never leave home without that spell checker. ;-)

So what is your latest book? Have any of your kids followed you into this noble profession?

Oh, yes I have to either ask or present an Access question... 

Is there any versions of Access that I can not run on Linux because they all seem to do so but I just have not testing all of them extensively?

Jim

For whats it worth my own personal thinking on the list.

I hope Access D never changes. Without it I would not be doing what I do now. I no longer work with Access but what I learnt here and especially the people I met here give me the skills and knowledge to push ahead. I have done things in the many years I have been a member and been places I never thought I would see and most of it is based around the foundation and the people of this group.

Has Access died, certainly for me other than a reporting tool for SharePoint. Is MS focus of the desktop, based on my knowledge and meetings here with them I would say the web is everything now.

Is AccessD dead, I don't think the spirit of AccessD will ever be. AccessD to me is the people here. Not the posts or the perceived lack of quality of the post, it's the friends I have made, the people I met and the help and experience I have received.

Today I am heading up Business Services at Queens University one of the top Universitirs in the UK, I have written several books, I have learnt about life, programming and other things on AccessD from those involved. I have made lifelong friends here. 


AccessD and the people involved is something that has touched and in many cases changed lives, I know because it changed mine.

Still cant spell worth S%^t but who cares!!

Martin
