Developer extensions frustration

I must express my total frustration with the sickening roller coaster that I
have been on since developing with Access (From 2.0).

The constant game of hunt the extensions and expense to my small business
clients is totally unnecessary. I sincerely wish that whoever is responsible
for the decision would stick to a reasonable plan in both deployment and
cost. The information as to how to obtain the runtime involves a tedious hunt
each time a new version is released. Sales really should get a grip. The
numerous posts regarding this issue are testimony to the fact.

To go from approx £170GBP upgrade to £400 is a huge hike. Access solutions
can be so elegant but the above just makes me want to chuck it all in every
time.
 
Why do you say there's expense to your small business clients? You need to
purchase one copy, and then there's no additional cost. Yes, it's relatively
expensive: you probably want to be saving at least 10 copies of Access
before it makes sense from a cost perspective.

And while the details of how you get the run-time do change from release to
release, it's usually not that hard to find the details at
