What started out 18 months ago as a small project to get my head around Access has now turned into the "lifeblood" of the business.
The systems in place all revolve around a central Access database (which I continually add to) without which the Company would obviously struggle.
The system is run over a network with up to ten users at any one point in time - the current file size about 8.5Mb.
My question (and constant worry at the back of my mind) is....Is Access the best platform to rely upon?
I find Access great as I can use it myself to tailor my own needs as opposed to translate my needs to a third party developer. But I am no professional and continue to keep my fingers crossed that it will continue to work.
Has anyone had similar experiences where they reach a point where help is needed or have to switch to another system
Thanks
