Hi David.
You might be mad at Neil, but I'm sure others (including myself) would be
interested in where Access falls shorter from Codd's ideal than other
databases advertised as being relational. I promise not to snap if I
disagree (I doubt I'm qualified to disagree!). I just don't think I've ever
seen such a list and I'd be very interested.
Thank you,
