If you're making the switch anyway (and you should -building a serious app
using Access forms and modules should be reserved for our Creator) why
move to another limiting environment.  VB is not a DB engine, but has great
hooks for almost any RDBMS you like (including Foxpro).  In some cases
I maintain a single piece of code for different desktop apps and web apps.
Migrating to different RBDMSs is usually very simple.
