Robin,
You may want to see this link in giving you some ideas in converting your AREV application to OI:

Just a few comments. There are some nice things about Access, but depending on your needs, if you go the Access route you may eventually find that you will lose some flexibilities and run into limitations.
OI7 is very nice and very robust. Anything that you can do in Acess you can do in OI.
It seems to me that going from AREV to OI will be much easier. Plus there are many helpful experts on this forum.
With regards to converting your data from AREV to OI, what version of AREV are you using and are you using "dots."
