Perhaps you should shut up and learn how powerful it is-- instead of
making excuses? Have you ever built a SQL Server UDF? Let's say that "better support for UDFs and SQL Server" counts as a "new feature" and give you that one as well, although I was REALLY hoping you'd be able to identify an actual "feature", and not just "better support" for existing functions. On Feb 24, 10:18*pm, "GP George" wrote: Confusion still reigns. I suppose your claim that introducing ADPs in Access 2000 can be construed as a "new" feature for ADPs is valid. You get a point there, and it is actually kind of clever; ADPs are in themselves a "new feature". Quite clever indeed. A new feature by virtue of being new. Let's say that "better support for UDFs and SQL Server" counts as a "new feature" and give you that one as well, although I was REALLY hoping you'd be able to identify an actual "feature", and not just "better support" for existing functions. Now we get to some interesting things. *"Pivot Tables" were a new ADP feature in 2003? *I won't bet money on it, but I am pretty sure pivot table support for ADPs was present in 2002. Maybe you can pull a real citation from a recognized source *indicating that they didn't appear in ADP's until the 2003 version? This is not a big deal, but the point of this exercise was to demonstrate your lack of attention to detail, and your inability to be accurate. On that point, you didn't do so good here, did you? The last two claimed features are, shall we say, marginal at best. Saying that "SQL 2005, half dozen other features", *and "SQL 2008 support" *are "new features" in ADP's is really a stretch, is it not? Unless I have been seriously misled, support for SQL Server is kind of the whole POINT for ADPs! *As a matter of fact, and you may not recall this, just over a year ago, you, yourself, actually submitted a comment in the Access Team Blog in which you complained *about the lack of full support for SQL Server 2008 in Access 2007! That's right, you criticized MS Access development team on this very point. |

Just because you don't respect the new features in SQL Server, doesn't mean it's not a few feature Stuff like pivot keyword, stuff like being able to pass around table variables-- it's priceless, kid! -Aaron On Feb 25, 9:15*am, "David W.

Access 2010 - SQL 2008 support That's not an ADP feature at all. It constitutes no change to the way ADPs work, just integration with the current version of SQL Server. And, of course, the next version of SQL Server will negate it (not that it even matters that much. You neglect to mention in the first three versions of ADPs how many things were broken, and then fixed, and then reverted. Steve Jorgensen tried really hard to use ADPs, but as a moving target, and with flaws with no real workarounds, he gave up. If somebody as smart as Steve can't make them work, I *know* that *you* can't. -- David W. Fenton * * * * * * * * *http://www.dfenton.com/ usenet at dfenton dot com * *http://www.dfenton.com/DFA/ |

Thanks, Aaron.
"Working with an Access project is very similar to working with an Access database. The process of creating forms, reports, data access pages, macros, and modules is virtually the same as that used to create an Access database. Once you connect to an SQL Server database, you can view, create, modify, and delete tables, views, stored procedures, user-defined functions, and database diagrams by using the Database Designer, Table Designer, Query Designer, Query Builder, and SQL Text Editor. Although the user interface for working with these database objects is different from the equivalent database objects in an Access database, it is just as user-friendly. An Access project also contains many of the same wizards as an Access database, such as the Form Wizard, the Report Wizard, the Page Wizard, and the Input Mask Wizard. These Wizards help you to quickly create a prototype or simple application, and also make it easier to create an advanced application."
