ODBC vs. RTS versions

[Guest TrustMe401k]

Is anyone taking advantage of the "new" ODBC / MSAccess ability of our software. If yes, do you see any pros or cons to using/not using it?

Any comments would be appreciated.

We are close to making the switch. We want more felxibiltiy in the importing of data. I have a guy working on it for me and it seems that under traditional there are only the formats available while ODBC permits self design. It was our carping that got the latest format designed. It was just announced in a FAXed fact a week or so ago.

Also we are using unit value accounting and the transfer process is very problematic....stray .01 and -.01 all over the place.. Not material but not professional looking. Control over the Participant statement design promises better formats via ODBC also.

Have you made any steps since your original posting?
