First off let me say HI to all of you.
I am new here but not to forums, I have been hosting 4 of my own Snitz 2000 Access based forums for a decade ;-}
About 3 years ago when I finally accepted that after 25 years in the PC building and fixing biz everything was going non-desktop I found a new gig, building Motorized Bicycles.
Though if I spent enough time refreshing my knowledge of VBscript and Access I could whip up something to handle the business stuff and maybe even tie it into the KCs Kruisers business web site I'm just not up to it so I am looking at Business SOftware I can run from the remote server and just use my browser to get stuff done.
MY ACTUAL QUESTIONS:
The web based system I am looking at includes the source code and totally open ended like my Snitz forums are so I have no problems customizing it to my needs that way, but to work it needs:
- need Microsoft Office Access 2010 in one the web server's administrator (server end) and all other client computers ONLY need Windows, Mac or Linux OS and internet browser.
- Need to have Microsoft Office 365 or a Access hosting service for publish to Access Service.
I know I need Access to open the DB and modify it, but do need Access 2010 to server it?
I am already processing Access 2002 DB info and don't really need 2010 to modify the new DB itself.
Will I be OK?
If not will anything I change so much I have to fix all my 2002 based .asp pages even if I leave then in 2002 format?
Thanks guys and thanks for having me ;-}
