Comparision

[Lamar]

I trying to do a comparision a creating an application/database in Microsoft
Access vs. Visual Basic Studio. What are the advantages/disadvantages? I am
new to Visual Basic Studio.

Does anyone have any ideas where I can find this information?

You mean Visual Studio 6? The main difference is that VB6 supports data but
almost as an after thought, as if "oops, we forgot that forms may have data
coming from or going into a database", while it is THE main idea, the reason
of existence, for Access. You get faster result in Access, as long as a
classical database work is involved, but you may find a few things almost
impossible to do, like trapping the onPaint event of your form.
