I just received a flyer from Microsoft announcing Windows for Workgroups
and "Access" .

I was most interested in Access which was presented as the Microsoft database
package to use under windows.  It sounds like Access will eventually
claim the same status as a Microsoft supported windows application like
Excel and Word for Windows.  

My company has a strong thrust to adopt the microsoft applications line
of s/w as the "official" set.  Lacking other information, until this
announcement, we had assumed that FoxPro would be the db of choice after
it was purchased by Microsoft last summer.  

Since we are poised to start building a number of databases for
upcomming projects, we would like to minimize the need to do any
conversions later.  

So the question is: What is the story on ACCESS and how does it relate
to Microsoft's purchase of FoxPro?
