Project description:
"I have a Microsoft Access application whose VBA codebase dates back more than fifteen years and now needs to run against SQL Server 2022. All original database files and referenced libraries are on hand, together with the original functional documentation that shipped with the system. What I do not yet know is whether every supporting file is still present or whether hidden dependency or version conflicts will surface—there may be bugs, but at this point I’m simply not sure.

Your first assignment is to get the solution up and running in a modern development environment, catalogue anything that is missing, and explain the overall structure so I can decide how best to tackle future enhancements.

Deliverables
• Successful compilation and launch of the Access front-end connected to SQL Server 2022
• A concise report outlining
– missing or obsolete references, libraries, or files
– any breaking changes you discover while upgrading
– high-level map of the main modules, forms, and reports referenced by the legacy code
• Recommendations on next steps for refactoring or extending the system

The project is ideal for an individual developer comfortable with classic VBA, DAO/ADO, and T-SQL who enjoys untangling legacy solutions. If the initial setup goes smoothly, I plan to continue working with the same person on performance improvements and new features." (client-provided description)
