Microsoft Access is a popular information management tool that helps you store all kinds of information for reporting, analysis, and reference. With Microsoft Access, you can manage data more efficiently and analyze large amounts of information. As a business, using Microsoft Excel can't prove to be sufficient.
Create a database from scratchFrom Access, click New > Blank desktop database. Type a name for your database in the File Name box. You can either use the default location that Access shows below the File Name box or click the folder icon to pick one. Click Create.
I currently have an MS Access application that connects to a PostgreSQL database via ODBC. This successfully runs on a LAN with 20 users (each running their own version of Access). Now I am thinking through some disaster recovery scenarios, and it seems that a quick and easy method of protecting the data is to use log shipping to create a warm-standby.
This lead me to think about putting this warm-standby at a remote location, but then I have the question:
Is Access connecting to a remote database via ODBC usable? I.e. the remote database is maybe in the same country with ok ping times and I have a 1mbit SDSL line.
