You're right. It's still going strong, the same old unsophisticated,
ugly, clumsy technology we knew and loved almost,twenty years ago.
Why does MS cling to it? IMO it's this way. MS wants to sell Access.
There are more people who are lazy and/or stupid than there are who
are smart and/or industrious. So their marketing is aimed at the lazy/
stupid majority. Here you go, bozos, a database you can use with no
effort, training, learning caring or education. A new, sophisticated
technology scarcely fits with that, does it?
