The Dataflex Community presents a wide range of events around the world, ranging from formal training to informal user get togethers. The larger events are generally organised by Data Access, but there are user groups who also organise their own smaller events. Another aspect to the DataFlex community is the Data Access Worldwide Forums Data Access Worldwide Forums.

Coming Events

Since this wiki was originally created, events and conferences are now typically publicised via social media and Data Access websites. So, here is a list of the places where you can find the most up to date lists of upcoming DataFlex events:

Just for fun sites

  • Joel Spolsky's site - he is one of the most interesting writers on software I (Mike) have come across: always intelligent (even when I don't agree with him) and often with a highly individual take on things. His entire back-output is archived on the site and you can sign up for e-mail notification as he publishes new articles.
  • Dilbert - well obviously
  • User Friendly - laughs for geeks
  • Wiki Index and our entry on it: DataFlex Wiki (feel free to expand our profile there!)
