Access is a pure PC application, has no forms of 'fault-tolerating' or even 'error-recovery' support, and is only as secure as PC systems allow. Consider, on grounds of speed and cost of development and if the skill are readily available, using it as the front-end of a client-server application, but put all the difficult systems stuff, like fault- recovery and security, on the SQLserver back-end. -- Alan M.
