Re: Access on VPN -- seeking solutions

Thanks, the article is very helpful. Now I just need some specifics on
how to set up an Access application to be accessed via Terminal
Services:

Some specific questions I'm hoping to have answered by Albert or
anyone who can answer them:
1. Do you know of a good written how-to source on the subject of
terminal services, preferably with a focus on using Access this way? I
need detailed instructions for an absolute TS beginner.
2. When using this method, is the front-end usually accessed via RDP
or is it possible/preferable to have a front-end on each local machine
with tables linked to a backend that is in a central location accessed
remotely?
3. Are there multi-user conflict issues using this method? Or does it
work just like a standard LAN based Access application, where the data
can be viewed and updated by multiple users at once? I would guess the
MDW file would be placed in the same location as the backend?
4. Does this method make it difficult for Access to automate other
programs like Outlook, Excel and Word?

Thanks so much for your help.

Since ms-access really has little, if anything to do with web based stuff,
then a good bet is as you mentioned RDP (terminal services).
