Isladogs Access Table Analyzer & Viewer Review

I am always on the lookout for awesome utilities that have been released having to do with Microsoft Access. And I wanted to tell everyone about this one. It's from IslaDogs, and it's the Access Table Analyzer and Viewer Pro. 

Now, a little while ago, I released my own utility, which was basically just to see which objects in your database take up a lot of space. It'll tell you if you've got a really big table or a gigantic form that's got some images in it or whatever. But this table analyzer is that on steroids. 

This thing has a lot of great features that will go through all the tables in your database, including the system tables, linked tables, SharePoint stuff, tell you the number of fields and records in each table, the exact table size. My database doesn't give you the exact size. Mine is literally just used for figuring out which tables are gigantic versus which ones are normal size. I just literally export the table to a new database file and see how big the file size is. It's not exact. 

But this table analyzer, this gives you really good readouts. Like I said this will show you all the linked tables, SQL server, Azure, SharePoint and so on. It'll analyze all the tables in your database including the system tables and it will make you a nice little summary report like that. That's pretty cool... Each field, the field type, is it a primary key, is it index, what size is it?

This is awesome. He's got a cool video on his website that walks you through using it and he's got two versions available. He's got a free one and he's got a more advanced paid one that's got lots more features and so check them out. I will put links to all of this below that you can click on. Check it out. Tell him I sent you. 

If you have any other cool Access utilities that you use that you'd like me to share with everybody else let me know! 

All right that's it... live long and prosper, my friends. I'll see you next time.
