[AccessD] Zoho Access Migration Plugin

Not so.
We have bid on contracts this year that specifically states: Access must
be used.
The rationale:  Access is an "approved" application.  If a web-based
solution is sought it must conform to "NEW" application criteria.  It
could take up to 18 months for approval.  The customer doesn't want nor
need the browser solution.

Ken, YOU Are CORRECT: this is EXACTLY what is happening in the corporate
world as well.

In my latest contract engagement, where I was working for the USER
department,
And NOT the IT department, Access was actually "banned" within 6 weeks
into
my engagement.
This was a surprise directive from the IT department, and it was very
"political".
The users were quite upset with this....and attempted to get it
"overturned".
6 weeks later, I was "let go".

I am sure this is happening "all over" the USA.
