Re: [libreoffice-users] compatibility with Microsoft Access

It depends on what you mean by "coding" and what the requirements of the
course are. If she is to be coding in VBA, only Access will do. If she will
be required to use Access on tests, only Access wil do. Even the SQL that
Access uses has some differences from the SQL used in Base, since Base does
not use the Jet engine that Access uses. The reporting system in Access is
quite unique, and learning the Libreoffice equivalents would be confusing
to a beginner.

So, sadly, it looks like you'll have to use Access.
