Hi
I am new to Access , worked with SQL server before.
There are a lot of forms and reports created in Access which I need to web enable for sales people.
I am looking at creating ASP pages, or working with data access pages.
Does anyone have an opinion about data access pages.?
Or any other suggestions??
Thanks
Crystal

I've never used them, but in general you'll probably find some kind of limitation that makes it more difficult to use data access pages than if you just used a scripting language in asp/php to make your data enabled pages.

Data Access Pages use web objects activex.

Not sure if it downloads on demand or you have to have office 2000 or greater.

If you have to customize the html output or functionality good luck!

Most painful thing in Access...you would think they would have made it as easy as Forms....

Ah well...

That bad huh folks?
I was really hopeing that some of our users here could design some reports for themselves once I created them the sprocs or views they could use. Anyone ever try the office web object on it's own,
(<OBJECT classid=CLSID:0002E553-0000-0000-C000-000000000046 id=MSODSC>
I believe.)
Needs an inline xml schema as a parameter!.
