[AccessD] Access Solutions Drilldown

Yeah, I filled it out.  I put a resounding NO in that one.  They're
looking at going back to the ODT like Access 2, and I've heard rumors
that was what was in store for either Office 11 or Office 12.  I suspect
some genius is again thinking that only amateur level development is
done in Access so they're trying to allow every off body with $300 to
spare to package their creations.  :o{

Have any of you filled out the Access Solutions Drilldown?

I'm on the last page right now and this question seems to be loaded:

"If the Access runtime and SQL Tools were offered for sale separately
from the Microsoft Office Developer Edition, would you be willing to pay
$299 for the offering?"



The last question concerns me. What would the point of the ODE be then?
If you split Runtime and SQL tools from ODE it would cause nothing but
grief over increased cost for me. If you created an Access Developer
Edition which incorporates all of the applicable Access ODE
functionality into a seperate lower cost package I would consider that
as desirable.
