It'll be a wizard - 3 clicks and you've got a website - Like Data Access
Pages right ;)

I was looking at the Access 2010 Developer Kitchen event that Rocky

In the comments, this exchange jumped out:

Sounds like they have something to disclose!

As you know, Microsoft is taking Office to the web with their Office
Live
project:
http://www.officelive.com/en-us/

Right now, Word, Excel and PowerPoint are supported. The interfaces are
in Silverlight, I believe.

So, does anybody have any dirt to dish? Let's gossip!

PS - If they really deliver a true client-server web app running full
Access forms and reports with events and VBA underneath, I'll kiss
Ballmer's bare butt! If it's standards-based HTML/CSS/Javascript -- both
cheeks!
