Web and Access 2003

Dan @BCBS

My team has been re-writting Access 2000 databases (linked to SQL db's) with
Visual Studio and .Net to create ASP web pages (utilizing the same data in
the SQL db).

I recently started working with Access 2003 - Does 2003 offer a better way
to convert forms and reports to be used on the web??

Any suggested reading on converting 2003 db's the web apps???

Thanks

To take full advantage of features available in .NET, it's a complete
rewrite. Access forms and web pages and the processing thereof are two
completely different animals. Not only that, but the architecture of your
application will probably need to change completely since .NET is completely
object -oriented.

That would be my inclination.
Any other approach and you will be left with an unmaintainable mess.
There are a few products out there that claim to be able to webify Access
databases. Try Googling them. They may offer something of advantage.

What does "It's a complete rewrite" mean??
Based on what you wrote - it sounds like we should forget about our Access
database and redesign/write everything in VS and .NET ... Which is what I
was expecting but not hopping...
