heh... Works the same for Aust. Defense Force.  "Better the Devil you know" seems to be the short version of the reasoning.

The rationale is that any software package that is to be put on the network,
must meet their strict certification process.
They call it Certificate of Net worthiness or CON. Any new software, e.g.
Office 2010 must be tested for CON.
It has taken up to 2 years to get a commercial software package approved.
To bypass all the testing and approval process, there is a big push to use
existing CON approved software.
Office 2007 is on the approved list.
So - I can build a tool using Access bypassing the approval process.

Interesting.  I've never worked for the military, but that surprises the
heck out of me.
