[Wine] Does Access 2003 work on Wine?

[James Mckenzie]

Vitamin:

I was thinking about a real database, like MySql or even (yuck) MS SQL.  Access has WAY too many limitations on data storage to function as a full time database.  That being said, I worked on an Access project that was a user friendly front end for a MS SQL system.  It provided forms and other functions that MS SQL, out of the box, does not.  Mostly Oracle Forms type stuff.  It even provided a semi-anonymous interface.

Yes, it would be much better to use an Open-Source product rather than a closed end product.
