Deae Dr. GUI, MVPs and others
Features of VB.Net 2005 makes it so easy to access mdb tables directly from
the form's controls. This makes me wonder how and if I should restrict the
communication to and from a database tables to a separate data tier which
is reached through a business process logic tier which passes data back to
the presentation tier.
1. Is three tier separation a best practice and recommended in all
solutions
for systems with a complexity level of seven or more classes ?
2. Doesn't the application of the point and click convenient access to the
DB Tables somewhat negate three tier
application solutions?
3. Sheepishly, could I say a new direction is for the presentation tier to
engulf the business
rules tier as well as the data access tier ?
