John & Gustav, A flat file would be OK for what I'm thinking of, but this would definitely be external, and with this company 'quite expensive' probably means 'quite unlikely'.

Hi Dan As far as I know, the free license with Windows 2003 is for internal use only, and the external is quite expensive. And Sharepoint database files ... aren't they flat files only? Not very sexy, just educated Excel files ... brings back memories of RapidFile. /gustav >>> dwaters at usinternet.com 23-02-2006 01:56:31 >>> I have a potential customer who might benefit from using Sharepoint. They are only about 100 people, but have sales and field reps in several places in the world. What does Sharepoint cost? I've read before that a list in Sharepoint can be connected to an Access database. If my customer does use Sharepoint, then I believe I can give him some database functionality collaborating with widely dispersed people. Has anyone used Sharepoint with Access? Thanks!
