[AccessD] Access vs. Filemaker Comparison Reference?

VERY biased.  Where did they get the '2000 character limit per record'
limitation?  I've never heard of that one!  

Several issues with the writer's understanding of what they are talking
about.  'One big drawback in Access is that exporting data from forms and
reports does not work very well.  Only exports from Tables and Queries work
all the time'. LOL  If you want a report or form formatted the same way,
then yes, it can get goofy.  But the data is all there.  I think MS would
have a LOT of people yelling at them if you couldn't export data from a
report!

This is probably a very biased review but for what it's worth see

Hello to all!

 

I may have an opportunity to work on a project where the company has
part of
what they need already done with a Filemaker database.  Where could I
find a
comparison between the two databases?

 

Thanks!
