Access Form

[kenrobol]

I need to work with my Ipad and wanted to ask the best third party app. for using Access. I need to be able to see and enter data on a form.

Access won't run directly on apple iOS, but there are workarounds.

One is to install a windows virtual drive on the ipad - you'll need to purchase windows OS but there are free virtual drives out there. Benefit, no internet connection required, but cost of windows OS

Or with an internet connection, so subject to bandwidth, connection quality etc
Use an access hosting service which you would connect to using remote desktop - but cost of hosting service
If you have a PC, then use something like teamviewer or jump desktop to remote connect to your pc, or just use the remote connection - no or little cost

Because these are remote connections, access is running on the target server or PC, so if connection is lost, it's like you just stopped typing and Access will wait patiently until you connect again.

You'll have to decide which is best for you and your pocket. I can't recommend anything in particular, but google/bing your question to find reviews etc

I use Jump Desktop to connect my iPhone to my PC when I'm out and about without any problem other than viewing on a very small screen
