[AccessD] Better Access GUI

[Gustav Brock]

Hi David

Yes, I have, inspired by Microsoft's Metro/Modern style (now, sadly, bugged with the awful Mac-style rounded corners).
Here are some examples:

They are comparing it to web based applications where the text controls have rounded edges, and some drag and drop functionality for interacting with Google maps.

Yes, I know they are different beasts but if the users don't like it they are not going to pay for it ☹

Yes, I also am looking for something that has the ability to handle the extensive business logic of the database.

Ideal would be to be able to do it all in Access (so I don't have to pay someone else to do the programming).  Does anyone have any examples where they have modernised the look of Access forms (we are not interested in Reports).
