Yup, and far superior. Only problems is, creating interfaces for an SQL DB is a bit more complex. -- nm - scorpion Apr 29, 07:00 10
- I have to get into this program. Limits of being self-taught are showing. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 29, 07:06 7
  - I'm 100% self taught. Just have to be diligent about setting a shit load of time aside for teaching your self in the beginning - scorpion Apr 29, 07:11 3
    - Any books or anything you recommend? - Will Hunting Apr 29, 07:13 2
      - Good question. I have a bunch of tech books for server systems, but I've never purchased one for programming. - scorpion Apr 29, 07:17 1
        
        Sounds good, thanks. - Will Hunting Apr 29, 07:30
  - do you need to learn SQL or you know it already? -- nm - zork Apr 29, 07:10 2
    - I'm working my way through a fair bit of it in some of my current db's. - Will Hunting Apr 29, 07:12 1
      - VB is pretty close to VBA, if you know VBA...it's not an impossible leap -- nm - scorpion Apr 29, 07:14
- you could use visual studio express to create web forms so users aren't tied to having Access installed on their machines -- nm - zork Apr 29, 07:05 1
  - Yea. With Vsiual Basic Express, it's not as much of a leap as it used to be to jump from Access to SQL -- nm - scorpion Apr 29, 07:08
