Hi
Over the years, there have been many complaints about useful Access features that MS in their 'inifinite wisdom' decided to deprecate.
For example:
- pivot tables / charts
- dBase support (now restored)
Recently some are angry that Web Apps are now being dropped with no proper alternative being available.
On the other hand, there are a number of features which I think SHOULD be deprecated as they have little real benefit & cause lots of problems.
At the top of my list would be things like:
- attachment / calculated datatypes in tables
- lookup and multivalued fields in tables
- split forms and navigation forms
I could probably add others, but do other forum users agree.
If not, which Access 'features' would other users like to see scrapped and why.
