    Dynamic forms

    Hi,

    happy Holidays.

    I need help/suggestions

    I have made an Access DB where the users would request some a dynamic form. I.e that the form changes/morphes in regards to the information they give in the form.



    I've seen this done using SQL and HTML frontend. Is it possible to do in access directly or should I make an HTML frontend to Access. Or am I forced to convert my DB to SQL?

    E.g. the database takes care of computer names. So what they want is that when they have chosen which house owns the computer, the house determines part for the computername, that the form suggests the next available computername.

    Thankyou in advance

    Access is a desktop database. Access also has the ability to work over the internet with SharePoint as an Access Web Application. If you need to have a front end application access data in a remote location, you can use Access with SharePoint or you can create a standard Web App using ASP, PHP, etc. Otherwise, Access will be easier to design, develop, and manage.
