Interpretation
The line reads like a slogan or tagline rather than a literary aphorism. “Access” most plausibly refers to Microsoft Access (the database program), with “flexible friend” positioning the software as a helpful, adaptable tool for organizing and querying information. The dash suggests an appositive definition—Access is being characterized as a “flexible friend,” emphasizing ease of use and versatility for non-specialists. As an anonymous quote, it likely circulated in computing culture (training materials, ads, or user groups) where software was anthropomorphized to reduce intimidation and encourage adoption.
