Thanks! -----Original Message----- From: dba-sqlserver-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:dba-sqlserver-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Nicholson, Karen Sent: Friday, March 12, 2004 4:47 AM To: dba-sqlserver at databaseadvisors.com Subject: RE: [dba-SQLServer] Arthur's article Dear Arthur: Thank you for writing your article as I did not know that I could create an ADP that interfaces wonderfully with SQL. I went from contract Access development to being an SQL corporate person, never realizing I could interface Access with SQL so easily. -----Original Message----- From: Arthur Fuller [mailto:artful at rogers.com] Sent: Thursday, March 11, 2004 11:34 PM To: dba-sqlserver at databaseadvisors.com Subject: RE: [dba-SQLServer] Arthur's article I was wrong and am embarrassed to have written that. I was using the beta when I wrote that and subsequent events made me look like an idiot. I apologize to you all. I too have devoted most of the last few years to ADP, to the point where now I am working on an MDB app and have forgotten a huge amount of the old way of doing things. I screwed up big time and did it in public and lots of people read it and I am quite embarrassed about my screw-up.

Erbach Sent: Wednesday, March 10, 2004 6:32 AM To: dba-sqlserver at databaseadvisors.com Subject: [dba-SQLServer] Arthur's article Arthur, While I haven't devoted much time to keeping up with SQL Server developments I do subscribe to a couple SQL Server newsletters: SQL Server Central and Builder.com. My eyes lit on the headline "Enhance Enterprise Manager with Access." I thought to myself I thought, "Self, isn't that what Arthur Fuller has recommended lo! these many eons?" I read through to the bottom of the article and, sure enough, there's your moniker. There was also the open question, "Why did Microsoft kill ADP files in Access 2003?" I remember some time back before Access 2003 came out you were biting your tongue in the groups here because you were under an NDA. The only thing I remember you saying was something about how disappointed you were with Microsoft's direction with Access. In Access 2003 are we reduced to using ADO in code to get at SQL Server data? I suppose that ODBC is still an option if one wants to have direct manipulation of SQL Server tables, right? Sorry if these are naive questions; I've been wandering for a while.
