There are no scalable solutions that use Access databases! Anyway, enough prejudice...

It seems eminently reasonable just to go on SELECTing * - but I have to admit I'd rather do some more selective SELECTing where possible. Performance probably won't improve significantly, but it'll give you a warm cosy feeling. Especially when you unexpectedly gain a few thousand customers (but then I guess if that happens you'll be getting a warm cosy feeling from your bank account anyway).
