Access and VB

[Fuga]

I´m thinking of building an application in vb which will work like a database with some additional functions. I already have an access db which I plan to use "in the back".

Now my question is: how will this effect performance compared to just having an access db?

I have a set up like you describe and performance isn't affected at all. One of the major benefits I have found is that the VB frontend leaves a much smaller footprint on your worstation using only 1% of the CPU rather than the 95% Access used.
