Good point Stuart... They have also disregarded ASP and similar languages as just HTML/XML/SQL/CSS environments which they do not consider languages but just support products for other languages like JavaScript.(?) It is also doubtful that they monitor groups, like Python, Oracle and especially Access user-groups which are islands of hard-core users.

They are all Database Application Development Systems rather than languages and I'd suspect that there are more Access applications around than several of the others combined. -- Stuart -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
