atw: Re: Document management systems using MS Access

Well, yes, indeed, Warren (L)

I stand partially corrected.
MS Access, off the shelf and out of its box won't do the job unless you build (and extensively test across distributed environments) something with it, essentially equating to what Microsoft has already done with SourceSafe, but that's no mean feat and collective brain drain will result. 

If pain persists, see your UNIX guru.

Cheers,

Like all databases, which is what a content management system ultimately is, you need to have the whole application well designed. If you have time, energy and resources, well, consider it. Access is an incredibly powerful application, I can verify that a large number of city wide traffic systems are happily crunching their lives away, with millions of things happening at any time, on MS Access. 

But the databases are well designed...
