I for one would welcome this, because I have to fire up vmware with windows and office every time I want to run my spreadsheet that has access at it's back end.Īll this said I have a feeling it (ms access in OSX ms office) will never happen. The original question was WHY can't microsoft negotiate with apple to include access in it's OSX version of office. Installing VMware then having to install windows, then having to install office is just NOT a practical solution to run one application. My spreadsheet and db needs portability between osx and windows, because much to my surprise (SHOCK HORROR) people use windows - and last I knew, my 63 year old colleague didn't have access to a 'university lab computer'. Also, some people may have a complex spreadsheet already programmed, and they have migrated to OSX, and they don't want to have to spend another 1000 hours programming time to convert it all (in my case) because it is hooked up with a database. I can't imagine the ordinary joe (especially people not used to the windows environment) installing that workaround.

You go to your university's computer lab? Good for you.
