We
began developing software solutions using Microsoft Access version 1.0, and we
have extensive experience with it. Access is a first class development tool that
can create professional applications in dramatically less time than other development
environments require.
The development services we offer are:
|
Complete Custom Applications
|
|
Data Modeling and Normalization
|
|
User Interface Planning and Construction
|
|
Automation with Word, Excel and
Outlook
|
|
Analysis and
Support of Existing Systems

Why choose Access?
Even though Microsoft Access is sold as a part of Microsoft's
Office Suite of productivity applications, it is a fully functional development platform
that can create complete data driven solutions comparable
to or better than those built using more
traditional development environments. Microsoft Access's strengths include:
|
Scalability - A well designed
single-user Microsoft Access database can easily upsized to a client server application
using Microsoft SQL Server.
|
|
Integration - Since Access
is a member of the Microsoft Office Suite, it offers strong integration with
other Office applications such as Word and Excel.
|
|
Rapid Development - Though
Wizards and Builder, Access development efforts are measured in hours, days or weeks
rather than months or years.
|
|
Compatibility - Access can
communicate with dozens of different databases in their native format via ODBC and
OLE DB.
|
|
Extensibility - The functionality
of Access can be extended through the use of DLL and OCX files and ActiveX components,
just as with Visual Basic.
|
|
Reports - Access
includes a robust facility for designing and producing reports, including charts and
graphs.
|
|
Performance - Access
can process complex data requests quickly, especially when connected to SQL Server
