Been a DBA for several decades but had to just do an Access to Access/SQLServer back end migration project the database bit took all of 15 minutes to figure out. The attachment BLOB's are on the file system so just used UNCpath pointers instead which sit in the same attachment column. Realising Access forms and VBA is a bit interesting. Started to see issues with attachments and multiple entries in a text box so revisiting Access VBA as need to create some sub forms (on field double click) and populating listboxes with the original entry split into sperate entries. The project needs to keep all the original access application so can amend VBA and add a VBA but cannot re-platform this so interesting and a bit hair pulling. Will probably ask some 101 questions that might seem obvious.
