[AccessD] Access 2007 Question

Limited flexibility.  Apparently they're throwing in at least a degree
of nesting, but I doubt that it will substitute adequately for VBA.

Well, aside from being 'old school', functionally, what are their
drawbacks?

I, personally, was writing something like those macros thirty years ago
for my calculator.  Doesn't really appeal for Access.

In general, why is there a preference for VBA over macros?  I can see
where VBA might have more flexibility but for repetitive cookie cutter
tasks aren't macros quite effective?
