[AccessD] Where to publish stuff

I concur.  

I haven't contributed as much as I would have liked over the years, usually because someone had a smarter answer while I was still scratching my head.  But I doubt I would seek out a website to visit regularly, and I love having the ongoing conversations arrive in my email.

Thanks, 
       
Liz

Sadly, if we switched formats, I would probably rarely visit. The email format works for me, the list format does not except for specific questions. 

Without the regular updates via email, I will probably loose touch with the people behind the answers which is something I like a lot about access D.

It was always very active and responsive especially in the first part of 90-ies when MS Access was in big favor everywhere and "everything was new with using MS Access in application development"... ( I have just found one of my postings from this group from Nov 1994 - https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/comp.databases.ms-access/jnPyljxvdjc :) )
