One thing to think about is your backup strategy. With an Access
file it is pretty easy to copy. Data files from apps like
MySQL/SQL Server etc. can be very difficult to copy unless you
include a process for stopping the server and re-starting it
afterwards.
Jeff,
Thanks for the reminder. Whether the individual user runs his own
backups or an IT department does it "invisibly in the background",
for small, single-user applications the paradigm of "this file == my
data" gives the user a simple way of determining what to back up, or
what to ask "the IT guys" to restore.
