[AccessD] Access & Terminal Services

Thanks Gustav, but the boss here is likely to want to go the TS route. We
have Remote Control working nicely for him from home, but for lesser
mortals, of whom there could be several, he doesn't want to have
workstations dotted around which have to left on and not used by other
workers, and other considerations. So I think TS would be right, but the
question is whether everything that my app does (as outlined below) will
work unaltered under TS.

BTW what's the license cost implication of TS? Must be considerable if you
went for an alternative. I thought it was part of W2000 server.
