Where it falls down badly(imho) is the lack of good documentation. Also the huge array of VBA/Access/Excel sites where one can get first class help and support.
Its not cheap but if ... I repeat IF it can do all they claim it might be worth it.
I was really hoping to find someone who had tried to makethis transition and either failed or succeeded so as to get a VBA type view on it
Thanks for the response,
