[AccessD] OT: What are you lot doing now and then?

1) Currently management and development of workflows in a rather nasty legal
application. No proper coding at all. :(
2) Used to do a lot with Access & Office integration, and reporting from
various back-end data sources (informix, oracle, etc.). The shift is really
down to moving into management and not being able to do that and maintain/
improve my technical skills at the same time.
3) Company (law firm), 250 employees, Tom's team leader <waves>
4) No

Dear Group,

Could you indulge me in a little survey?

1) What's your main line of work these days? Access development, SQL Server
administration/development, VB, ASP/ASP.NET, PHP...?

2) How does your work today differ from what you were doing a few years ago?
Is it only that you're using newer versions of the same tools, or are you
doing entirely different development work?

3) Are you independent or do you work for a company? If you work for a
company, what's the size of the company and where do you fit in?

4) Do you have any Microsoft Certifications? If so, do you keep current with
them, and/or have they made any difference in your current position?

Thank you very much. I'm approaching a career crossroads with the decision
to stay in business as an independent developer or not. I have picked up a
fair amount of .NET knowledge (the hard way -- is there any other?) but I
have no Microsoft certifications.

Regards,
