Hi,
I am a new comer to Access and am finding it a valuable tool.
I have noticed that several of the database programs at my work are based on Access (E.g. the materials ordering system, the maintenance control/scheduling/recording systems). The forms resemble those in databases I have prepared myself, but do not appear to run from access.
I am wondering if these forms and user interfaces are, in fact, prepared using a programming language and simply send and retrieve data to the Access database.
If so, which language is most common/suitable, which would be the most useful to learn? If not, how do I make it look like my database is a program in its own right?
I've a few good ideas that I think could be marketable in my field, and want to be as professional as possible.
