If you are an experienced user of microsoft excel you will probably at some time or other been frustrated with the lack of effeciancy or stability of your spreadsheets. Formulas can get lost or broken, links can break down or security can cause a headache. You should start thinking about using microsoft access as alternative solution.

Simple Solutions are Born from Microsoft Excel

If you use Microsoft Excel for detailed reports and data handling then you know how clumsy and inefficient excel can be sometimes, especially when it comes to finding errors if a formula gets messed up somewhere.

• Maybe you want to sort and find data, is it easy in Excel? well it can be, but how confident are you that what it produces is accurate and it hasn't jumbled up the data?
• How often have you spent ages writing a macro just to click on it one day to find it has stopped working for some inexplicable reason?
• Have you ever produced multiple spreadsheets that all connect to other spreadsheets then find out the links get corrupted or a formula disappears? Trying to find out where the problem is can be time consuming and frustrating.
• How often do you import data into your spreadsheets and how confident are you it does exactly what its supposed to do?

These are all simple anomalies that every Microsoft excel user faces and can be time consuming and very frustrating. Imagine your Boss comes into your office and wants a detailed report and he wants it NOW, have you ever had to say:-

"Hold on Boss while I just fix this damned spreadsheet as I'm not confident the results are quite right"

By using an Access database not only would your Boss get results faster with confidence, he could actually open the database and click on a button and get a report for himself without leaving his office.

Another Classic Excel Scenario

If you are on holiday and people want your excel information, which is only on your PC, how do they find it? sure, it may be shared on a server somewhere, but do they know how to use your spreadsheet? how confident are you that other people who access your spreadsheet will not mess it up or find it difficult to operate it? this is despite all the security protection you have applied to the spreadsheet.

These are but a few dis-advantages when using excel. Convert them to a Microsoft Access database now and save yourself a lot of time, trouble and frustration!
