I think it is a logical move to discuss how to migrate from Access to .Net in this list. Where better? ;o> Charlotte Foust -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Ken Ismert Sent: Tuesday, April 25, 2006 10:44 AM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: Re: [AccessD] Tab Control - vb.net And there we have it. A completely non-Access thread, not flagged OT, and not tagged by the moderators. The only one I can recall. I am NOT complaining -- I just wanted to observe that this should be the natural trend of this forum. My local Access Developers group is now almost exclusively .NET and Web, and that is largely a good thing. Like it or not, MS has moved our cheese. We need to follow the cheese. -Ken -----Original Message----- From: Charlotte Foust [mailto:cfoust at infostatsystems.com] Sent: Tuesday, April 25, 2006 10:54 AM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: Re: [AccessD] Tab Control - vb.net I believe that is so, but I don't know how that will affect programming the interfaces.

That's a bit farther from the Access object model than might be comfortable for some developers just beginning to make the switch. In spite of the Microsoft push, a lot of people just don't want to use a browser for everything.
