Microsoft MVPTotal Visual Agent

"I often use this wonderful tool to schedule complex management reports to run in the middle of the night. Total Visual Agent runs the reports when no one is in the system. This means that processing involved in creating the reports does not degrade the performance of users trying to get their jobs done during the day...the reports are ready waiting for the users when they arrive at the office in the morning."

Alison Balter, Author of Access Absolute Beginner's Guide and 20+ other Access and SQL Server books

Microsoft MVPTotal Access Analyzer

"The only way to really know what's going on in your database. I especially like its module analysis and the way it catches unused variables and procedures."

Ken Getz, Author of Access Cookbook and many Access and VBA books
