Five Reasons Why People Hate Apple
Stoic Joker:
No, but my todo list is. Our IT department consists of only one monkey...Me.
The folks that use the report have some of the oldest machines, so it was assumed ... and never mentioned, until I got a request for some new features for the site. Ha! ...That went well.

While debatable it's really not the central point... :D ...I'm just dealing with what I had (was given) to start with (Personally I much prefer the PHP/MySQL combo). It's a "Production System" with no latitude for downtime. So... A complete conversion was/is just not in the cards at this point. However I may try it later, time permitting. Hopefully before it takes its (Access + large record set = boom) inevitably complete shit.

If you are old, don't care to learn just want to use something and it work, apple is for you.

You must only meet one of the criteria, not all. Not saying apple is only for old people, but am saying old people should only use apple
EDIT: ESPECIALLY if you're an old person calling me for help fixing your internet

No no no. Not your sanity - the sanity of using Access... That must be very not fun.
It makes me wonder if there is any way to "trick" the system into thinking that it's using Access but actually have a different RDBMS there. Then it would be possible to swap it out.
