[AccessD] Using macros - good thing or bad?

Hehehe... Yeah... 6 months in and I am *still* waiting to get
permissions to use SQL Server.  Of course I made the right decision by
using an Access BE on the LAN, which I got up and running on day 1.  It
is a bit sluggish compared to SQL server, but hey, at least it is
something....

Very Interesting.
However, mention VBA to anyone in corporate IT, and they look at you
like a vampire would when seeing sunlight.

Of course, if anyone here has had any recent experience with large
corporate IT departments,  you would say they all BEHAVE like vampires.
They'll suck the blood out of anyone who encroaches upon their  turf.
