[AccessD] Ethical or not...

<<which of course is not possible in 2007>>

  Note quite true; A2007 will honor and enforce workgroup level security as
long as the DB remains in a MDB format.  

  Mind you there's nothing in the UI that will support ULS no matter what,
but that doesn't stop you from working with it in code as long as you don't
use the ACE format.

Subject: [AccessD] Ethical or not...

after a client meeting today, the issue of AC2003 vs. AC2007 came up.
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 ?
