Sharing with non-access users

[Guest]

I have a form used for data entry that I want to share with others in our
office. I also want to allow them to run reports off my main table. What is
the easiest, most effecient way to share my database with non-access users?

use Data Access Pages.

is the functionality pretty much like working with forms? I want them to be
able to select a customer name from a combo box and then have the rest of the
info on the data access page reflect the customer they seleceted. Also, do I
have to set anything special on the data access page to make it available to
the others or just plop it on the server? Sorry, kind of a novice on this
end. Your help is appreciated.

Data Access Pages are different beasts. It will be necessary to create one.
They are also somewhat different from an standard Access Form. I suggest you
do some research on the subject.
An alternative would be to acquire the developers toolkit and distribute a
runtime version of Access to those users.

I did a little reading up on the runtime theory. Do you have any suggestions

Either from Microsoft or some other place that sells Microsoft Development
tools.
