We just purchased a new notebook for my wife and MS Office Home & Student family (3 machines.)I retired from the VA a year ago today. I had assembled a couple of MS Access databases on Access 2003 for shop parts and the specific equipment I was responsible for as well as some for my shop-mates in Biomedical Engineering at a VA hospital . They were just tables and queries, nothing sophisticated. I had just begun to learn about setup of user interface, relational links etc when it got too busy to pursue. Since retiring I've run into a need for a relational database for a chorus I sing in for member & singer addresses & status, lists of works and director's rehearsal notes etc. I tried using Open Office Base and found it severely lacking. I see the Access 2010 listed on Amazon.com for $122 and was wondering if it would suffice or if it's some severely stripped down version. Also would there be a huge adjustment from the 2003 version? The VA had just converted from 2003 to Office 2007 a few months before my retirement but the shift wasn't as complex for Access as it seemed for Word. It appears there's been as great a change for users 2007 to 2010 with Word as well.
