[AccessD] Access App to Web Page

Hi Tony:

A big jump. Desktop to web.

There are so many, "it depends". Used both MS SQL and Oracle as BEs for
Access as well as some custom built web sites...currently both web sites are
internal intranet sites.

The only sample I do have is, and it old (about seven years so it doesn't
use any of the fancy HTML5, CSS or JQuery code). It just shows how a web
page can access an MS SQL server, via AJAX and displays the data in various
ways. It is simple but it might give you some ideas.

Note: I am doing some upgrading on the web server so it may not be up
steadily...working on migrating it to another server.

Hey All

It has been an interesting month, no new work for about a 1 1/2 years
(almost bought that wiener wagon and retired to the beach) and suddenly I
get 3 requests for upgrades to old existing Apps.

Now a new one.

I just had a prospective client preview an App I had designed for an old
client.

Pros

They loved the program for it's sophistication, simplicity and ease of use
(not blowing my own horn here). Exactly what they are looking for.

Cons

They would like it to be also available on a Web page.

 

Now I have programs running on stand alones and sophisticated networks but
this is all new to me. 

They have a limited budget and would like quote.

 

I guess my question is, is this possible (I figure yes) but at what cost to
develop it??? I mean so many different questions and problems start to
arise.  They mentioned Oracle but I just do not want to go there.
