Max et al,

I just found this site after  reading thru some of the latest exchanges on
Access 2007.

http://channel9.msdn.com/shows/Access/Microsoft-Access-2010-Demo/

This is a 24 minute video, and a series of comments.
Take a look at the comments from Brice IT......

Steve - I don't quite understand the above.
Why can't they translate much of the VBA by creating a Javascript library of
functions and objects and then create a translator to convert the VBA code
to Javascript ?
They were able to translate VB6 to VB.NET, so why not VBA to Javascript
and/or their new highly touted XAML ?

I think an Access 2010 app ported to the 'net stripped of VBA will be mostly
useless.
