I feel your pain. As the owner of a small store that requires specialty software (consignment) and an IT guy who has actually worked for a database company in tech support, I think I know whereof I speak. The prog I have to use only comes in Access. I've begged for the guy (who has sold more than a few hundred copies and keeps it updated) to convert to something like Pervasive (Btrieve) just because I know it is more stable and loads faster. He doesn't want to be bothered. There are other consignment software progs out there but none that operate the way I want the software to work and be stable.

Effectively, like you, we have no choice but to use this app with Access.
