panelboard schedule in an MS ACCESS table question

panelboard schedule in an MS ACCESS table question

(OP)
Just curious, has anyone had experience creating panelboard and/or cable and conduit schedules in an MS ACCESS table? Once these schedules have to link to each other for shared information (like cables in a conduit), it seems MS ACCESS would handle those links MUCH better than EXCEL.

You could do it in either program, but it's much easier to get to look nice in Excel. You can then copy and paste into an AutoCAD drawing.

And it's even easier to use somebody else's programming as in the folks at SKM, Easypower, ETAP, etc. That wheel exists, no need for reinvention.

When one this sentence into the German to translate wanted, would one the fact exploit, that the word order and the punctuation already with the German conventions agree.
