Client-Server App vs MS Access Data Project

Hello all,

I am looking at building a front end for a SQL Server 2005 database and am looking for an opinion on which way to proceed. My goals are high performance and security. Would it be better to build a desktop client-server application or create a MS Access Data Project to be used as a front end for my database?

ThanksYes, high performance and security comes with SQL Server, not MSAccess.
But client-server app is required when need 2 processes to be running each on a separate machine. Even the database is on a separate machine this doesn't mean a client-server app.
So you need just a desktop application (.Net, VB, Java) with an SQL Server, if it must not be Web accessible.
