How to connect an online form to an online database.

Post by froggyboy604 »

What programs are good for connecting an online form to an Access 2007 or other type of database file type.

The form will mostly ask people for their names, dates, and other alphabetical and numerical information.

I don't like the user interface for access. it is confusing espiecally in Access 2007 and the ribbon.

i dislike most MS 2007 apps, they seem to think people like difficult and awkward GUI's and it's being adopted by additional idiots

Plus, it is expensive, too for the Professional Version of Office $499.99 USD http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/suite ... 61033.aspx

Office 2003 seems to be the last decent version of MS office.

I'm forced to agree with you there though i am considering a more permanent move to alternatives, due to the amount of fun i have had with office 2007, (i use fun in a method probably not in sync with it's definition)

I have to make this Database for a class project. Access 2007 is very disapointing. It can't easily convert e-mail address in a query to a e-mail mailing list format like a@a.com ; b@b.com ; etc.

I found the switchboard manager the most disapointing feature of access It limits people to 8 items per switchboard.
