    Thank you for the feedback. These requests have been an ongoing discussion with the team, both internally and externally. Especially with our continuously increased focus on establishing a stronger Access-SQL experience, we do plan to have some requests on this work looked further into within the next year. We will keep you posted with specific feature designs in scope as well as timelines. In the interim, you can continue checking our public roadmap for feature updates.

    Add "server filter" capability like we used to have in ADP!!!!!!
    server filter reduce network traffic by a factor of 1000 - that's why ADP was so good
    allow forms to filter at server and not bring an entire table to client then apply filter
    does not much sense to understand that!!!!

  2. Provide a real SQL Server Front End technology LIKE ADP was

    Microsoft has decided to kill ADP not because it was bad
    because they went through a period of mental stumbling
    I was In Seattle conference when they have decided to do so
    I offered alternatives that would keep the functionality of ADP without the complications it has
    ADP was the best product for SQL server
    you can see suggestion above with top rating to add SQL server connector
    ADP did that and much more
    they just wanted to promote the crippled access web application with not much success
    now they realize they not only failed but also lost the market for other products
    now they put new people to try and revive what they have killed
    just bring back simple connection to SQL that bring the entire schema
    with ability to use all objects such as tables, views, functions and stored procedures
    through in few new components such as native treeview with grid, listview and we are good to go
    we don't need any design capabilities for any of the SQL objects - that could easily achieved using management studio -
    currently we still running a complete ERP system on ADP 2010 and SQL 2016
    it works like magic and the speed is unbeatable

    that would be the greatest revive of ms access

  3. Form Title bar should conform to the Theme colors.

  4. Add more controls like in visual studio. With more controls the developers will have more flexibility to create their applications.
