Microsoft Access 2010 Personal Relational Database Management System.

Microsoft Access 2010, also known as Microsoft Office Access 2010, is a rapid application database development tool.

Office 2010 will reach its end of support on October 13, 2020. If you haven't already begun to upgrade your Office 2010 environment, Microsoft recommend you start now. MS Access is a member of the MS Office suite of applications, included in the current Office 365 edition. Applications built with Microsoft Access 2010 can be distributed to end users with a free runtime version of the application that lets them view databases without needing the full installation of Access.

MS Access 2010 commonly uses the Jet or ACE database engine, but is not limited to these.

Please tag your question ms-access-2010 so others know what version you are using. Tag your question with access-vba if your question involves MS Access VBA.
