You could use SQL Server Express if they want to control access to tables. The latest version will hold 10Gb of data. Someone there would need to learn how to do that, unless they want to pay you to include that functionality in the Access App. Good Luck!

Oh, what a mess: they do want to use built-in Access security to control user rights to the tables...which of course is not possible in 2007. So if they purchased 5 individual licences of Access 2007 and then "someone" installed the AC2003 runtime on the network to be downloaded by all 5 license holders, is that fair to Microsoft ? Isn't it obvious that the AC2007 runtime has little value relative to the AC2003 runtime ? -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
