Interesting.  The author appears to have taken the best Access utilities scattered around the web an re-written them into an integrated package.

That's almost cool enough to make me wish I still did a lot of Access work.  Almost.  ;)

I just found the following utility which I have NOT tried yet but I thought
looked interesting, particularly for you developers managing multiple
applications and Access versions.

Main Feature List >>> The software will 

* show you the computer and Access user name of all connections to a
database. More..
* allow you to compact/repair or backup a database as soon as everyone logs
off.
* open the correct version of Access for you. More..
* let you keep a list of favorites along with the Access version that you
want to open it, the relevant workgroup file and the minimum size to
schedule a compaction. More..
* let you send messages to users and shutdown the database. More..
* allow you to compile for increased performance and decompile a database to
remove compilation junk. More..
* allow you to setup reminders relevant to your database.
