Well folks it's that time again. Time to answer everyone who emails me at least once a week asking if Microsoft is planning to retire Access. It's now 2023 and I can say with confidence that Microsoft Access is very much alive and well.

UPDATES:
2023-01-13: A student emailed me today concerned that he was "in a meeting today and was told that Microsoft will no longer be supporting Access after 2025." Yes, Access 2016 and 2019 will be heading for "end of support" in 2025, but that's just their normal schedule. They do it with ALL of their software. They're still supporting Microsoft 365, Access 2021 and whatever version comes next. Here's the full list of products reaching "end of support" in 2025. Excel and Word are on there too. Don't panic. I told him to "forward a copy of [my video] to whatever fartknocker told you this and send them a heaping serving of my SCORN!"

MORE INFO:
The last time I updated this video was back in 2020. I posted some links to other articles and videos including interviews with Access team managers at Microsoft. They were very emphatic that Access is alive and well and that Microsoft is continuing to develop and support it.

In fact, this question just came up again in a November 2022 online meeting of the Denver Area Access User Group where they asked team members from Microsoft if there were any plans to deprecate Access and of course their answer was absolutely not.

So here are some of the top questions I've been asked over the last three years since I previously updated this video. The first one is: "is Microsoft Access still available?" Some people can't seem to figure out how to buy it. Well yes Microsoft Access is still available either as a standalone purchase or as part of a Microsoft 365 business subscription, which is what I recommend.

Is Microsoft Access free? No unfortunately unlike word and excel there is no free online version of Access. It's a desktop application only. However, if you're planning to deploy an Access solution to your office you only need to purchase one copy of Access itself. Only the developer who is building the database needs a paid copy. Everyone else in your office can run the free runtime edition.

Is Microsoft still supporting Access and adding new features? Yep. They've got a page on their website called the Microsoft 365 road map where they outline what they're working on and when they expect to release it.

So, as you can see Microsoft Access is still very much alive and well in 2023 and will be for the foreseeable future. What I'm going to do now is include my 2020 version of this video that goes into even more detail about how Access is still relevant. Pretty much everything that I said back then is still valid today.
