Web-based database?

[Rusty]

Hey Guys,

I've been working in MS Access for years now but our service is expanding to cover the whole south west (of England).

My boss has announced he wants a web-based database to run the show and has given me a blank cheque to go get some training.

Great news...only I have no idea where to start? Any ideas on software?

I really have had my head buried in the sand of the desert of Access! LOL!

well web development is a real tricky one...

give that article a read and also look at the comments on the bottom.. I personally would stay away from access with web development stick to pure SQL.....

Wicked! Thanks - that's really helpful!

Looks like it's gonna be SQL then

Will be sure to read up on it first before committing our cash to anything. Luckily the new service doesn't kick in til 1st October so I have time to plan, get trained and be ready to start in muy new role in Oct.
