[AccessD] Using macros - good thing or bad?

Jim,

I have not heard any credible suggestion of Microsoft wanting to "move away 
from VBA" for Access, nor can I imagine anyone aspiring to make macros 
emulate or replace full VBA functionality.  If there was, I would agree with 
you totally.

Regards
Steve
