Tony, Well I'm not extinct yet (I've gotten into C#/.Net), but there's no doubt the world has changed and AccessD remains stuck in the past. But none of that is new and nothing that hasn't been discussed on the list before (last go a round was from one of your posts). Nor has the result changed either - nothing changed. I'm not being harsh or negative here, but just stating the facts, which has also been discussed before... The world has moved on from list formats such as this and is also moving on from Access. I would not be shocked at all to see in the next release or two of "Access" as we all know it to be called "done". Microsoft's sole focus at this point is the cloud and Office 365. With Access, I highly doubt you'll see any new features for traditional "client" database apps. If you do, it will be end user features that make complex tasks simpler. That's been the trend since A2007 and A2013 had nothing new on the client side. Everything was about the web apps and that's where it's at...

Yes they may be some of you that are still being profitable with ACCESS projects but let's be honest............... Sorry not trying to be the "Grim Reaper". Getting that old wiener wagon and hanging out at the beach and watching wave babies is looking better all the time. The only problem is I am to old to remember what to do with a wave baby.
