Hello,
I have recently started doing Access desktop as front-end and split backend to SharePoint Online and it is working great when it comes to allow multiple users to work on the database at the same time from different locations. It was also working great if any of the user is working offline and they have sync changes back to server on reconnect.
I have been informed that Microsoft has just discontinued Access Web Services (article), does this effect Access desktop applications connected to SharePoint in any way? Does that mean Microsoft will take off all of SharePoint related features from Access Desktop? Also what are other alternatives?
This is how I see my tables backend hosted on SharePoint Online/Office365: https://goo.gl/G9DdiB
These are 03 options that we currently see in Access desktop version: https://goo.gl/AMf6tW
Thank you
Mohsin
