Should I upgrade to Access 2016 or 2021
Hello - I have been using Microsoft Access 2010 for many years. It has been a great tool because it allows me to use it's drag and drop "intuitive" interface to create macros that I can run daily ...
Hi,
> I believe I had read awhile back that Macros are no longer as easy to use in the newer versions of Access
The macro designer hasn't changed much since Access 2010. Therefore macros are almost the same.
In general, from a usability standpoint there were no big changes since 2010. So, for the things you describe, it doesn't matter much if you take 2016, 2021, or the next perpetual version, which probably will come later in 2024, or a 365 subscription.
2021 is 1 year longer officially supported by Microsoft than 2016 and has a few more new features.
If you are interested in support periods, you can read more here.
