Hi,
You can make some data processing on server, using stored procedures, etc,
and bring only results to client. So you reduce network traffic and
processor/memory resouces on clients. You can use triggers, which are not
availabel in Access DB.
But you have to consider this if you have a lot of data (> 100-200 MB)
and/or many users (> 15-20), else better use Access database
 
I would add in there that if you have multiple tables that are updated
in a single transaction (eg a reservation system*) that SQLServer can be
worth it because the triggers can be setup to manage all of that, as
opposed to having to code the SQL statements

*where the following tables have to be updated

reservations table
inventory summary table
pre-assigned inventory table
folio header table
deposit information table
group master block table
additional names table

(not that I know anything about property management systems)

What are the benefits of upsizing Access to SQL server?

It keeps Microsoft shareholders happy...

Does Bill Gates drive? I always assumed that he'd have laid-on corporate
transport if he wanted to go anywhere; and with that hippy Green Computing
Environmental stuff I figured he would be cycling the rest of the time.

All the best

Didn't he buy Porsche and force the auto engineers to install WindowsXP
as the car's opsystem?
