Martin,

I assume you're running your own SP server. I was referring to Office 365's
limited version of SP as a back end for Access.

We have lists with millions of items.

We also have some serious hardware.

Actually you can use vba if you keep the front end on the client and link to
the SP lists in 365. I am not impressed that SP lists are limited to
something like 10,000 rows. Hopefully that will be upped so some serious
storage can be implemented.

The big potential of Office 365 is imminent...it will soon support all of
Sharepoint 2010's functionality.
It took quite a while for that to happen.
Office 365 is a biggie...if you know the limitations.
Sorry, I haven't done my full research yet.
One thing I discovered was that Office 365's search does support PDF
documents.
Sounds tiny, but for me, that was huge.
Again, Access is supported in this environment with the right licensing
option (there are several)...
However, you are stuck with the limited macro version which disables all
VBA.
