Web Database Reporting

The best way to pull information from a web based database into Access?

RE: Web Database Reporting

Hi Arabella,

Thank you for your question.

Use the File Get External data command and then Import Data.

If you have the database on SharePoint, then there is a specific option which allows you to put the URL address in.

Alternatively try the HTML option.

I hope this answers your question.

Regards

Simon

Access tip:

Switchboard Startup

An option when you open your Access database that contains all of you tables, forms and queries is only the switchboard is displayed.

To achieve this, select Tools click on Startup. On the right hand side of the Startup screen you are able to select which form you want to open when you open you Access Database. Once you have selected this, there is a check box just below that says "Display Database Window", you need to uncheck this option. Then click ok.

Then when you close you Access database and re open it, the database should open with just the switchboard being shown
