Finding a good Access developer

[Guest]

Hi,
Anybody know how to find a good Access developer?
How do know if they're any good? (examples of work? qualifications?)
Does working only over the web work or do you need face to face to get a complex project to work properly?
Would you choose a developer from a company set up or a private individual?
Any thoughts?
Many thanks
Peter

Anybody know how to find a good Access developer?

You can do a search on the internet for Access Developer and probably get a
good number of hits returned. You can also search through the Access
newsgroups and look for anyone with the moniker "MVP" in his or her
signature. (hmmmmmmmm....is that a shameless promotion? No, cause I have
more than I can handle right now.)

How do know if they're any good? (examples of work? qualifications?)

Having them send you a sample database that they designed might be a good
indicator. Especially if they can send you something that is similar to
what you are looking for.

Does working only over the web work or do you need face to face to get a

complex project to work properly?

That depends on your ability to communicate your business needs via email.
Face to face is probably always better, but not absolutely essential.

Would you choose a developer from a company set up or a private

individual?

You can find good and bad in either situation.

Thanks very much for the reply Lynn.
What's an MVP?
Thanks
Peter

MVP's are people who volunteer their time answering questions in these, and
other, newsgroups. Microsoft bestows the honor on people who demonstrate
technical skill and the ability to effectively answer questions in order to
help the Microsoft user community.
