Well, I agree up to 99%. I have been looking for a simple solution to
remotely edit SQL database for years. Yes, solutions does exists, Open
Office have db to, but none allow me to process, or paste multiple
records at once for example.
The only solution I have is to use Access with the layer ODBC on Windows
to do that very quickly And yes Access is strictly use as a GUI
interface if you want to edit content of SQL database on remote servers
and event if that's not as fast as it might be, doing 100K paste records
in that SQL DB remotely works very well and no I can't do that with Open
Office and I still haven't found something to do it that way yet. Open
Office allow me to edit one records at a time. Fine for many cases, but
not for all. Even on a MAC I do sadly use VMWare to run Windows and have
Access there as I have no alternative. Call that sad and it is. But
that's one case. Only one yes, but one case where I have no alternative,
or find one yet and I sure have been looking for years.
All that said, for everything else yes I totally agree with you. I do
not have any other case.
Best,
Daniel
