removed meta & social content. poster should edit to ask 1 question. labelling a collection of some the questions in the post as "[the] question" is unclear & misleading.

Specify that we are speaking of microsoft access, and not of "multi-user databases".

Jul 14, 2022 at 12:41 comment added J.D. @SMor That's fair from a business perspective. Though I usually find there's a good amount of unrealized costs to using obsolete practices and / or software in a business too, that people typically aren't aware of until they take a step back and analyze how they can improve.
Jul 14, 2022 at 12:37 comment added SMor While JD makes good points, carefully consider your situation and costs vs. benefits. Nothing is free - software must be acquired, expertise developed, business processes updated and relearned, code migrated, etc. Query performance is likely to be of little concern in a properly designed database using well-written queries.
