    A way to do it online...

    At this point, I feel like I can create any office solution I need for my business using Access. Love it.

    The one blindingly obvious thing I'm missing is a way to do it online. I'm jealous of programmers who can build interactive order forms for their customers using web languages that store Tables online. I want to put my order Forms online... in all their VBA enhanced glory.

    After all this hard work, after all this learning Access... is there no way to put forms online and run VBA code akin to a normal application... but in a web browser?

    If the answer is a hard "No", followup thought: Is there a smooth "transition" you can recommend away from access that still 1) uses VBA or something almost identical and 2) can share Tables with my desktop Access application.

    Can I do all this without needing 2 PhD's?



    Thanks,
    Matt

    I would suggest you look into Visual Studio Community (free last I knew)
    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/vis...w?view=vs-2019

    You won't be able to use VBA, but check out .Net (somewhat identical to VBA- maybe)...... and you will probably have to use MySqQL or SQL Server as a BE.

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