Project Scope

This dialect is primarily intended to be used for teaching and learning about Hibernate. It supports basic Access column types like LONG (Integer), DOUBLE (Float), DECIMAL (and, by extension, CURRENCY), DATE/TIME, TEXT (max. length 255), and MEMO (CLOB).

It does not support some special Access-specific types like Attachment fields and multi-value Lookup fields because they can be implemented using standard RDBMS techniques (e.g., related child tables).

Best Practices
