The extremely terse explanation I received from the project manager does 
agree with what you describe below.  However, it looks like there are a lot 
of tables, linked tables, and queries within the Access database.  There 
don't appear to be any forms, and there are just a handful of reports.  So, 
at over 1GB in size, I guess they are storing data in Access, too.
