Should I be using Access?
Hi!
I have 4 people on a network working on separate Excel "stations" (each with its own VBA code) that use a single database which is an independent Excel Workbook. Each user imputs new things to the central data base. However, my central data base is approaching the dreaded 65535 records. Should I migrate the data base to Access? Or would I be better off attaching a second data base (or excel worksheet) to the original? How can I use Excel to imput data (records) into access? Thanks and Best Regards, Albert C |

Depends how familiar you are with Access. If you are comfortable with it then
I would definitly look to migrate over. As you said it is a database. Reading and writing to Access is fairly easy. A quick search of ADO DB Recordsets should point you in the correct direction... Just my 2 cents... -- HTH... Jim Thomlinson "Albert" wrote: Hi!
