Sneak Peek: Modern Access Charts
At Access DevCon Vienna 2024, the Microsoft Access team provided an update on two exciting new features under active development:
- A new and improved Monaco-based query SQL editor
- Several new modern chart options
To help promote these forthcoming features, DevCon Vienna host Karl Donaubauer is releasing excerpts from Microsoft's presentation on these two topics to the general public. Karl released the first video a few days ago and just recently released this one.
