Automation issue
Hi,
I kinda have 3 questions. I never used access so it is hard for me to judge my options at this point, so i decided to ask he 1. Where can I have more automation options - Excel or Access? In excel I know a bit of macros but nothing too fancy 2. which of the two programs provides more visual options: charts, objects, graphs etc... 3. Can any of the two programs be used as a reporting tool? THanx |

1. I am not an Access expert, but I would have thought that as both can act
as automation servers or clients, it is equal on which is better. 2. I would have thought Excel wins that one. 3. Excel is not a reporting tool (although many people try to use it as one), so I guess Access is better here. -- HTH Bob Phillips "Dimmer" wrote in message ... Hi, I kinda have 3 questions.
