John Durant from Office marketing is on The Knowledge Chamber with Robert Hess. He is talking about new features in Office that help developers. He starts his Access plug about 3 minutes into the talk. Good stuff. *** Moffat who has attended several of our developer kitchens recently wrote a blog post about Access 2010 and hybrid apps. He really likes the deployment features of rich client apps and SharePoint. “In the end Access 2010 allows the traditional client-side Access developer to stage their entire application inside SharePoint on a site created by Access Services. When an Access application is “Published” to SharePoint all objects (tables,
Cheap Office 2007, queries,
Office 2010 Professional Plus Key, forms,
Microsoft Office Professional 2010, reports,
Genuine Office 2007, etc.) get stored inside the SharePoint site.“ Michael Gannotti recently blogged from the SharePoint Developer Conference about how Access Services was one of his favorite additions to SharePoint. He approaches it from an IT perspective: “As a former corporate systems architect for the 2nd largest mutual fund company in the world Microsoft Access was the bane of my existence. Whenever IT was perceived as too slow to respond to a groups request for a data centric application invariably the group would create an Access data base in response. While I understood the need to move forward with business and "get the job done" unfortunately it often meant that these one off data bases were built on a shared drive and not properly managed.” <div
