[AccessD] WANs and Access

Rocky,

<<Anyone have any experience with this or know of any limitations with
Access in this regard?>>

  Access with JET as a db engine is not designed to run over a WAN and
sooner or later, you will have corruption.  You need to use Citrix or
Terminal Services for remote users if your using JET.

  Alternative is Access with an SQL backend of some type.  That you can do
over a WAN.

Had a prospect ask me how robust my application would be running over a WAN.
Broadband connection but 'slow' according to his description.  Plus folks
dialing in from remote locations but at least 50MBPS.  Anyone have any
experience with this or know of any limitations with Access in this regard?
