		I was trying to be clear that we needed full read/write
capability within Access. Without ODBC, the only way I know for Access
to work with Valentina data will be the Valentina COM support. This will
work within Access using VBA programming. But, other objects within
access, such as reports, forms, queries would not be able to work with
the Valentina Database (I assume.) 

	>You develop Valentina-based application? In Director? Else?
		We have developed two applications:
			1. Microsoft Access application 
			2. RealBasic application 

	Currently, the Microsoft Access application is using the Access
database format. We would like to continue to use the existing Microsoft
Access application (GUI, reports, etc - 2 years of work) but change the
underlying database from the Access database format to a client/server
solution. I really like everything I have learned about Valentina. But,
without ODBC, it will be difficult for the Access application to easily
work with Valentina data. Another reason we are looking into Valentina
is the really good support for Realbasic. We are just now trying to
select a client/server solution for our RealBasic application. 


>We have Valentina Studio which allow mage Valentina db from GUI.
	That is good.


Thank You,
