Karl_Donaubauer That's great! Access is still the best RAD tool on the market, and the best Desktop database everywhere. No matter how many new tools appear every year (I'm looking at you, Power Platform) there is no tool as complete and powerful as Access.
I've been using it since version 1.0 and still love it. Believe me... I try to find an app as powerful (and COMPLETE) as Access is, and in 30+ years, still looking!
If I could change Access in any way, I would implemente javaScript as a programming language (can you imagine that), replace FORMS with HTML and Code-Behind and, obviously, then add some support to export this Forms to web somehow.
That would create the BE-ALL and perfect tool for almost all scenarios. Well... I could dream!
Thank you for your GREAT WORK! And to make this incredible software better all the time!
Hi,

I think your last sentence is the decisive here. 😉 I do not expect any major changes by Microsoft for Access. However, there's a realistic chance that for the first time we will see a (most likely commercial) choice for different kinds of extensions and modernizations from a third party vendor.
