I have a client who has some predictive dialling software - this has an
access database at it's heart - they have developed a 'front end' access
database that they use for various things - I would like to implement a
few forms and queries for a certain part of the business to use but I
don't want to mess with their front end so....
I thought I would just create my own small front end and connect it to
the same db that their front end connects to. They are already running
multi user for their front end and I presume that as the db actually
belongs to this predictive dialling software, that is also being used
multi user. Is there any reason not to do what I have in mind ? It would
also mean that I could make changes to my front end while their users
carry on using their db - this makes the maintenance and developement of
my db much more viable.
Any thoughts or pointers would be really welcome - How do I create the
ling to the existing DSN.
Thanks for any help.
