[AccessD] Office 365 on Google Chromebook?

[dw-murphy at cox.net]

An alternative would be to set up a Windows 365 account and install your Office 365 on that. I think you could log into this from any computer running any OS.

Gustav.
Thanks for that clarification/ It will save me several hours of head-banging (bring on Nine Inch Nails!).

Without Access aboard, there is no point in pursuing this path, so I shall abandon it. Bummer! Otherwise I like this computer, but sans Access it's a No-Go.
