This is news to me, Anita, but not surprisiing. MS has pretty much abandoned Access as a platform for developers, it would seem. Despite the fact that the ADP format remains the finest way to address an instance of SQL Server. In short, stick with what you already have. I stopped upgrading at Office 2007, which works nicely with ADPs. Personally, I have switched horses and now devote my hours to mastering Alpha Anywhere. But I still have clients for whom I wrote Access apps, so I'll never be gone from this field of endeavour.
