Re: Oracle - MS Access - Does your company have a policy about local vs. centralized data storage? (Perhaps a bit off topic?)

we have a strict policy that access databases are not allowed. It is worked around, both inside and outside the IT department whose boss came up with it.

My take is that if we offered an alternative and a migration service this would help, we don't :(
