[AccessD] Making changes to remote db

Hi Mark,

Take a look at http://autofeupdater.com/.  This is a well-used and easy way
to update Access FE files to all the users automatically.  Since you don't
appear to have direct access to your customer's server or network, you'll
need to work with your customer to have them set this up, which is pretty
easy anyway.

Good Luck,
Dan

Kevin,

 

Are you talking about having the FE on each person's machine...and 1 BE in a
shared location that they all link to.  Each time the user opens their
'local' FE copy...it checks to see if there is a new version...if
so...'download' new version, delete old, and reopen?

 

In other words...any updates get sent to all machines utilizing?  So if
working remote...you send them a single file and it updates all FEs?

 

Let me know If I'm close.

 

Thanks,

 

Mark A. Matte
