The systems people looking after one of my clients is considering using Sha=
rePoint. More staff will be working from home and they think that this may=
be a better system than using Remote Desktop Connection to the server.
They have asked me if it would have any effect on the Access databases that=
I have set up.
Basically, I don't know because I have not used SharePoint.
I have the usual setup with a backend containing the data table on the serv=
er and a separate copy of the frontend on each person's computer. I distri=
bute new versions of the frontend with AutoFE that compares each person's c=
opy of the frontend with that on the server and copies the newer version to=
their machine if necessary.
How would the use of SharePoint affect this setup?
Will I need to modify my database in any way?
