I developed an application (in Access2007) and there is one report that I want to have (semi)online for my clients. One has told me that 'sharepoint' will do. Is there anywhere a trial sharepoint services website so I can evaluate some issues?
You can use it free.

Luciano, Whereas SharePoint integration with Access 2007 is awesome, you need to be aware that it relates to the data (tables) being kept in lists on a SharePoint site, and linked to from the Access application. There is no provision for Access forms or reports to be online. If you were using SharePoint, you would need to separately build a web interface to show the data. The other option is saving the report from Access as HTML or as a PDF file, and putting that on the web server, with a link from the applicable web page. You can then use code within the Access application to upload the report via FTP to the web server, whenever the data is changed. -- Steve Schapel, Microsoft Access MVP Luciano wrote: > I developed an application (in Access2007) and there is one report that I > want to have (semi)online for my clients.
