Re: [mdb-dev] Status of Write Support?

[Murray C. <mu...@fo...>]

Hi guys

I agree with Alex.  Actually, I think this read-only ability may be part of
the plan to extract as much data out of Access as possible without the
ability to put it back.  Frankly, I think it's a good plan.  The sooner we
get rid of Access the better.
