I saw this thread the other day on UtterAccess (btw, a very nice resource for all things Access) which made me laught a little. Oh, the rumours. It's always fun to hear crazy stuff you know first hand to be completly made up.

Well, if it serves anything, I can authoratively say that that Access is alive and kicking. Or at it least I hope so, because otherwise I've been hallucinating about going to the office every day to work on Access for a while now.

If you use google..err..msn search, you can even find more hints about this.
