Jim,
It seems to me the FDA doesn't care whether a developer uses VB or C++. Great
developers/prdicucts can use Jet and VB, bad developers/products can use SQL
Server and C++.
You state that Jet is not Part 11 compliant.
I'd be interested to know that in your experience, what specific 21 CFR Part
11 requirement will Jet with a properly developed Access/VB front end not
meet?
I understand that in your opinion JET is not a good choice. So be it, but it
doesn't move the discussion forward to rely on marketing terms like robust &
mission critical when discussing 21 CFR Part 11 compliance. While I
understand that Jim Elliott is against Access, this thread is attempting to
determine if the FDA is against Access, ie., is there a specific 21 CFR Part
11 requirement that Access and/or Jet cannot meet?
It would be helpful stick to specific requirements, appropriate
specifications, and failed test cases to show that specific approach has no
merit or that a requirement cannot be met. In my experience is is possible
to meet these requirements with a well crafted Visual Basic front end.
