Why This Chapter Is Important

Several alternatives are available for creating client/server applications in Microsoft Access. Access Projects are generally the best choice for client/server applications that you build today. This chapter begins by introducing you to Access Projects and telling how you and your users can benefit from them. It then goes on to show you how you can maintain a SQL Server database from within an Access Project. Next you'll learn how to properly design the forms and reports contained within your Access Projects. Finally, we'll talk about the ADP gotchas and how to avoid them.
