[AccessD] A2K: Drag and Drop with Access

 One other method to consider.
 The latest version of Sharepoint has user controls that you can drag 
and drop. They are called Web Parts. Web Parts are ASP.NET Web server 
controls that run within a specialized SharePoint Web Form. These can be 
dragged onto the form by the user.

Second, if you have Office XP, then you can use Word and  Excel to save
documents as web parts.  This is another non-developer  way to "build web
parts". Go into Word  2002 (XP version), make your document, import the 
graphics and make it how  you want.  Then go to File->Save As Web Page, 
navigate to the dashboard and  publish to the page.  It makes a web part 
for you and even asks  you where you want to put it.
