I am a Program Manager at Microsoft working on the next
release of Access. I would like to get some feed back on
what is important to Access developers in reference to
programmability.

What do you all want to see in future releases?
Is .Net important to Access developers?
Does .Net play a role in whether you use Access?

I guess (nr 1), I'm curious why you didn't post this on
the programming thread.

Right now (the reason I'm here) is I'm trying to find an
event that I can use to trap when a record is updated. I
can't rely on the chance that a user is using forms or
some other mechanism so it has to be more granular than
that (possibly tied to table updates). This has
implications in tracking security and cross-referencing
the ability of other tools to share data (right now I'm
working with VISIO 2002 as the other end).

VB.NET is a worst case scenario for me since most of my
applications because of tight coupling are intended to run
on the same system. Chasing recordsets of 200K records is
not something you want to split across multiple systems.
