Hi,

I've got a central MS Access 2000 database. I want some of the information to be made available to salesmen out in the field. Is the 'data access pages' facility in MS Access 2000 worth using. Are there any pitfalls?,
Thanks,
JohnH.
 
Hi John

Data Access Pages are useful for that kind of thing, providing all of your users are using Microsoft products. DAP's only run under Internet Explorer 5 or above.

They do offer a virually code free way to produce pages as they use an Access Interface to build them, but their underlining code is VBScript.

Another thing you could look at is ASP Pages, open the help in Access and type ASP in the index keyword search, that gives you quite a bit of info there about them.

Hope that helps,
Mikee.
