Upgrading Access Projects to Access 2010 (from Access 2003 or 2007) can be tricky. The default values for textboxes as well as combo boxes are handled differently and are now dependent on whether forms are bound or not bound!

SQL Server help for small Biotech firm
We are a small biotech firm in Germantown. The bulk of our data resides on our SQL Server database in-house. Can we attach Microsoft Access as a front end to this database to work with the data? Database Management is not our thing…

Microsoft Access
Views in SQL Server vs. Queries in Microsoft Access: They are essentially the same thing!
SQL Server with Access
SQL Server can work seamlessly with Microsoft Access: SQL Server is the back end that contains tables and queries, while Access contains the forms and code.
SQL Server missing transaction logs
Is there there an easy way to determine if you are missing transaction logs for a SQL Server database?
Yes!
Try the following code:
SELECT D.[name] AS [db_name], D.[rec_model_desc]
FROM sys.databases D LEFT JOIN
(
SELECT BS.[db_name],
MAX(BS.[backup_finish_date]) AS [last_log_backup_date]
FROM msdb.dbo.backupset BS
WHERE BS.type = ‘L’
GROUP BY BS.[db_name]
) BS1 ON D.[name] = BS1.[db_name]
WHERE D.[rec_model_desc] <> ‘SIMPLE’
AND BS1.[last_log_backup_date] IS NULL
ORDER BY D.[name];
