Microsoft Office XP

Microsoft Access 2002

Overview



Access 2002 still can't make coffee, but with improved Data Access pages, XML support, and better SQL Server support, it can tackle just about any database task. Improved Pivot Tables and Charts let you more easily analyse data and publish to the Web. We liked the new option to export reports, forms, and tables in XML format. Definitely worth the AU$728 price tag (or AU$233 upgrade).

    Sprint's WiMAX roll-out in Baltimore will prove the Australian government's decision to worm its way out of the Opel WiMAX contract was a short-sighted, and ultimately damaging, political stunt that has benefited nobody.
