If you Could Ask the MS Access Team Any Question, What Would it Be?
Next month Ben and I are once again traveling to the MVP Summit at Microsoft headquarters for our annual pilgrimage to the mothership. It’s a wonderful affair were we get wined and dined and fawned over by Microsoft, and of course meet with the Microsoft Access team!
What would you ask for?
If you could ask one question of the Microsoft Access team, what would it be? What feature would you want? What about a comment or feedback? Let me know in the comment section below!
Here are some pictures from prior year’s event

My only question is why Microsoft remove pivot tables from access?
For the access Desktop: will there be Edge be integrated with the WebBrowser Control on windows 10 (Access 2010, 2013, 2016) – or still relegated to IExplorer Only
For the access Sharepoint webclient: 1) Standalone w/o Sharepoint 2) merge unify with desktop or 3) DIE!
Hi,
I guess we still don’t have MS Access as web application. They suggest to publish to SharePoint. It will be great if Access comes up as web application. Can you please ask this one question for me?
I used to develop application using Access during year 2000-2005. I liked Access so much due to its quick development without needing much of coding. One can really focus on designing application rather than worrying about coding. Unfortunately, some of features in that old Access version are not in the latest one!
Fine, to move on, I would love if Access with its unique strengths can come up with web based applications. So after my question, please convince them to pursue so…
Thanks,
Shailendra
What is the real status of the Access suggestion box? For web apps, for example, 161 suggestions have been left. They have 3 statuses but the total of items in those statuses is only 20 items. What is the status of the other 141 suggestions? What about the 8 that say they are under review – does that mean they will be included in a version soon?
My question would be: when (what version) will gui-objects become dynamically sized according to the size of the users display?
In my dreams, I would like to see a new Access environment, totally Web and totally integrated in SQL Server.
You install SS and you have your new Access environment. You can use T-SQL to create functions, procedures and so on. For some more difficult problems, you use VBA.
You can buy your hosting in Azure or you use you SQL Server Express for free in your desktop.
But I think, it will be more easy to see the first man on Mars in the next 10 years.
Hi, Juan.
Looking forward to another wonderful Summit.
I’ll put my requests in directly, but I’m REALLY anxious to see what they plan to do about ODBC connectivity, for SQL Server, SQL Azure, etc. .
