Needed - MS Access

[jonjon72]

Wanted to know if anyone has connections to get MS Access at a discount price. (Perhaps through BB or FS). Brand new its about $140 plus tax. Any suggestions or referrals would be appreciated. Thanks!

I was not able to supply a legit Access version, so I think Jon still needs assistance.

Actually, you have a good point:
SQL Server Express is free, and is a much better tool than MS Access.

Unfortunately she needs MS Access since that is what they are using at Seneca.

Will pm those that have offered their assistance with Access
