    Creating interface for tablets

    Is there a way to create a kiosk-like Access database that can be used with a tablet interface? I'm sure I'm asking in the wrong forum, but if someone can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it.

    I've created the kiosk-style database. It's only for inventory use, so nobody else needs to see any banners or database elements. What I'd like is to get this onto a tablet so that someone can walk around and check off the inventory they locate. We do run Sharepoint, so that may be a solution? We're running all MS Office 2013.



    Thank you,
    Michelle

    Thank you June7. I've looked all day at what I'm needing. It seems there are apps that'll read some Access tables, but not forms. I'll keep looking, but I guess I'll have to figure another solution for this year's inventory.

    Right. You would need a tablet with Windows OS so Access could be installed.
