Simple Access Application

Marcus de Leon

Hi,

I have been asked to create a internal system that allows the user to login
and logout, and add, modify and delete records from an access DB. I know
there are several options to do this. Visual Basic/C++, ASP, etc..

The system is going to be a shared system that is just used in a LAN in a
small office.

Can somebody recommend what is the best option to do this. I am a
programmer, but not familiar with the utilities that may come with Access to
easily create an application.

Thanks in advance.

Access has a built in User Level security option. Read the Security FAQ from
Microsoft several times and follow it to the letter. There is a link to it
on the Security page of my website.

From what you describe, using Access is the best solution.
Anything else will require you to create forms, reports and code over again.

Where is a good place to learn about creating applications with Access?

Open Access and start.

You can develop quite sophisticated applications without writing a
single line of code. Native Access has its own built-in Forms (for
onscreen data viewing and editing), Reports (for printing), Queries
(with a query design grid or a SQL window, your choice).

There are many good books on using Access. Just don't assume that you
need to start from mining iron ore to build your automobile... <g>
