Access Usability Study
Access Team Scheduling Sessions to View YOUR Application
Weeks of May 19th and 26th (April 2010)

Opportunities for several developers that have created and/or are working with large apps containing 50 or more database objects.
BONUS --- COMPLEXITY and Foreign Languages and, for ADPs.

You need to be familiar with the application, but you don't have to own or have created it. Please remove sensitive data so that you can leave the files with the Access team. They will use the files to improve their understanding of real-world scenarios, not to steal your code and tools.

The files will need to be functional in Access 2007 or 2010.

Sessions will be on the Microsoft Redmond campus and last 45 to 60 minutes.
Participants will receive Office 2010 Professional when it is released!

If you are interested, send me an email and I will forward it to the coordinator!

Microsoft Usability Site

Usability Studies are FUN!!! They provide a means for Microsoft to gain insights into what computer users want, how they expect programs and controls to work what may seem awkward or frustrating. A typical study takes about one hour and is conducted in one of the facilities on the Microsoft Redmond campus. In return for sharing their thoughts, participants may select a gratuity from a generous list of products.

Personally, I LOVE to participate!! Share my thoughts AND get free software!! Sign me up!!
