Convert Access application to DAP

[Guest]

I have an Access 2003 "application" that simplifies the update process of a
networked DBF database. I need other users in our office to be able to
access this application on our intranet, even though they might not have MS
Access. Is is possible to convert the existing forms and reports to Data
Access Pages without reinventing the entire application?

Forms? Some can be converted using the built-in convertor...but no subforms
will be converted. Note that DAPs allow fewer queries to be updatable when
compared to forms, so it's possible that some pages will not allow data
entry unless you modify them.

Reports? No. You'll need to recreate them into pages.
