I have an existing database (and report functions) built on FoxPro. I would
like to modernize this application ...
Do I use Access or Excel?
There are 14,000 records now, with about 30 fields including notes. We plan
to more than double this input for both records and fields tracked.
Data entry is a key. Report features are a key. Alerting the users to
records they should take action on (based on date) is also a key. The users
are not computer efficient.
I'm familiar with Excel, but not as familiar with Access ... any advice?
Additionally, if I'm missing a product that's out there (non-MS) more
suitable to the task, I welcome your input.
Many thanks!
