Luke Chung (FMS) did a similar bit on this sort of thing. This his article
is on the FMS web site/ My own point of view is that Access wil be around
for many many years. They are already talking about Access 14 in some of the
emails I see.
 
I actually wrote an article for Microsoft on what happens after moving them
to SQL Server
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/sql/2000/deploy/managesql.mspx
 
At that time was a big PR push to move them to SQL Server.
 
The people involved in Access from what I can tell have huge faith in it but
I dont see them looking at it in the same way as we do as a developer
platform to build real world applications. 
 
I think the future of Access is tied tightly with Microsoft SharePoint.
Everythign I see is pointing that way.

Hi All,

Is this article from http://blogs.msdn.com/access/default.aspx just a cry of
MS Access Team trying to stop the massive(?) exodus of MS Access developers
or it shows the real picture and place of MS Access in corporate world and
that MS Access isn't yet dead for real business tasks development ?
