Reservation system in Access?

Would you use Access to create a car rental reservation system? I would
think that the complexity of such a system would be better suited to a
procedural language like Visual Basic or C++. Your thoughts, please.

Then why does anyone use Visual Basic?


Asking that here is like asking Canadians why they elected George Bush.


I hear you're all voting for Conan O'Brien this year.

That sounds like a database project to me. So use a database development system. Like Access.

What makes you think it's 'complex'? IMHO the complexity of a system can't be measured until you've done a great deal of work in analysis. And if it
is
complex the chances are that the complexity is in the data structures - tables and how they relate to each other. In which case a database
development system is what you need. Like Access.

Of course if it's very very complex then you probably need to program it properly. In which case assembler is the obvious answer.<g>

As has been pointed out, won't this just be standard vertical market
software that somebody has already written?

Yours, Mike MacSween

A previous poster evidently hasn't found any!

We have developed a prototype working application to handle Reservations or Appointments into an Access 2002 or SQL Server 2000 backend system. These Reservations can be originated using an Interactive Voice Response System (IVR), a Web enabled form, and in the 4th Quarter of 2003, a Palm Pilot interface, too. They all feed into the same backend database in real-time offering considerable savings in determining the exact
