I tend to agree with this sentiment, however there have been times when an
access like app would be great for quick and dirty data cleansing. The
database sucks but the IDE like front end is really nice. The closest thing I
have found is tora, but it doesn't have the import functions that let me
import cvs, tab, and spreadsheet data like access does. Most of the time if I
use access l link to postgres or mysql. But that has been long time.
