    User interface to update a table


    I am looking for a way to create a form that allows a user to update a table without having access to the database information itself. Something I can load to a sharepoint or shared folder. I want multiple users to be able to use the entry interface to update the database. Thanks for any help

    It sounds like you want to create a bound form. Highlight the table, then from the menu click Create > Form.

    You may want to hide the database tables so users will not be able to (easily) enter data in the tables directly.

    A next step would be to slplit the database in to a front-end and back-end. More info: http://www.granite.ab.ca/access/splitapp/overview.htm

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
