Dale,

Depending on the complexity of the database you may-be able to get away with moving the whole shebang to Sharepoint lists instead.  This solution is only good for certain setups, but for one to two folks I have helped out with Office 365 (and who had simple existing Access databases) it was a far faster and superior solution to embedding the old MS Access into sharepoint.

The list have a decent chunk of functionality (Such as lookups, rules etc) you can apply, along with permissions.  As I said, your mileage and complexity way render this idea unsuitable, but it is worth considering...

Cheers
Darryl.

Subject: [AccessD] Access to SharePoint

Good Morning Everyone,
 
I have an access 2007 that I am looking to move to SharePoint.  Does anyone have any experience doing this?  Will VBA code work in SharePoint?
 
If I would move the program to Access 2010 how would that change things?
 
Thanks for the help!
 
Dale
