Need good application or company that build best Microsoft Access Solution

[sothikvicheachann]

I'm new to Microsoft Access. I'm seeking for application that build with Microsoft access in any industry just to see sample form or report in real word. Company name should be ok.

Maybe you can check out the new Northwind template.

I agree with theDBGuy---There are several links to Northwind 2.0 Starter Edition here.

There are two versions of Northwind.

One is for beginners who need a more basic introduction.

The other is for developers who have some experience, but who need good examples of more advanced design and functionality.

Try the downloads on my website. Varying quality over time, but if you just want to look at Access databases, go for it.

Why stipulate access is my query; especially for a new project.

I'm not quite sure I catch your drift here. What are you trying to suggest? Thanks for clarifying.

The origional post though not clear to read suggests he is new to MS Access. We should not assume MS Access is the best platform to provide what he needs as his overhall objective is ambigious at best. Before we say MS Access can acheive what he needs and likely it could his objective needs much more clarity before we can be sure its the right product to use... We would not wish him to go down a path thats not suitable just because its possible and has expressed an interest in Ms Access.

I guess when someone asks for information on using Access, that is a fairly strong indication that person is interested primarily in Access.

Why would someone assume the opposite to be true?

That is up to the O/P surely?, otherwise we would be interrogating every new member as to why they want to use Access?
The onus is on the O/P, not the members here.

Well it was a curious request. It sounded like "show me the look and feel of a sample access database".

If the requirement is just to demonstrate that an access app can look ok, then the suggestion to look at northwind might well be sensible.

@GPGeorge I looked at some of your links and many of the UA links are broken

Ah, thanks for the prod. I know that UA has problems with older links. Time for a house-cleaning.

Many are led down the path of MS Access based on inaccurate information being told it will do everything they require it to do. Personally i find working with accrss 2 steps forward 1 step back... Get to a point only to find MS have broken something which cost time and money to resolve which cannot be passed onto the customer. IMO MS access only shines if you heavily rely on VB and 3rd party apps. The point i am making is that because someone has shown an interest in MS Access does not mean its the right tool to use to acheive their goal.

Cleaned up the old links. They were supposed to redirect, but some of them were failing to do so.

And vice versa.
