Hello to all

[Jacob]

My name is Jacob and I live in Sydney, Australia. I have been with PC’s since the introduction of the first IBM PC and with Access since Access 97.


I have no formal qualifications in computing and learnt all I know by the seats of my pants. I stumble upon this site a number of times looking for answers and I have been impressed by the quality of the replies so I decided to join to enable me to give too rather than to take only.

Great stuff! That's how I discovered this site too.

Do you work with Access a lot?

Welcome to the forum.

Thanks Sam,

Seeing that I am now retired, I am not sure about ‘work’ but indeed I use several access applications that I had created for my personal use, some very elaborate, that I keep improve as I go. I ran all my personal accounting needs on a modular accounting system that I developed after I could not find a decent “off the shelf” program that meets my all of my needs.

All my applications are VBA driven and I regard myself quite proficient in VBA but I would not go as far as describe myself as an expert.

Likewise! I can never justify buying anything off the shelf simply because I like challenging myself to make it, and let me tell you, the satisfaction when done is simply addictive!

Welcome aboard Jacob.
