[AccessD] Access 2007 Navigation bar

Still supported unless you use any of the new SQLS erver 2005 data types. MS is making a huge push towards the world using linked tables. Fromwhat I see they are also making a huge push towards Access being used to work ofline with SharePoint list data. Both areas will I would guess receive more focus than ADPs as Acecss moves forward towards .NET and SharePoint.

Thanks, Martin! I'll check all these sites out.

Incidentally, it's been a while since I did anything in Access. Lately I've
been doing a lot of tech-docs and learning UML 2.1 and Java and Perl and
Python. (When deciding it's time to learn a new language, I always choose
several rather than just one.)

Anyway, what is the current state of Access 2007 and ADP file format? (I
could look it up but hey, you're here. If the ADP is still supported, how
does it react to SQL 2005 databases and the new features available, such as
the revamped schema definition -- one of my favourite features! I totally
love this feature. I have a single database in which I store all the code
for my SQL Tips column, and whenever I start a new subject, I create a
schema for it, which subdivides the tables etc. in a most beautiful way. I
haven't tried to connect to a SQL2005 db with Access 2007 yet, but I am most
interested in how it will respond to schemas. Unfortunately, that exercise
will have to wait. I have other fish to fry (about to post a message to
dba-Tech hoping for insight on said larger fish).
