SummaryToday's video from Access Learning Zone focuses on connecting your Microsoft Access database with Microsoft SharePoint so you can share your data online with other users and at remote locations.I'll start by explaining the strengths and limitations of using SharePoint with Access. You will find out exactly what SharePoint is helpful for, and where it may not be the right solution. I'll also outline what you and your users will need before you can start working with SharePoint. Next, I'll walk you through setting up your first SharePoint site. We will create a SharePoint list, which functions very much like an Access table, and you will see how to start entering and editing data on your new SharePoint site. You'll also learn how to share your list with others by configuring permissions, and how to connect your Access database directly to SharePoint. You'll see how linked tables work in Access when they are connected to SharePoint lists, as well as how to publish your Access tables up to SharePoint. This allows you to distribute your database and let other users work with your data. Even users who do not have Access installed can view and update your data right from their web browsers. The seminar is organized in five lessons. In Lesson 1, I will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of SharePoint, and review everything you need to get up and running. Lesson 2 covers the step-by-step process of creating a new SharePoint site, setting up a list, and working with data on that list. Lesson 3 goes through the process of connecting Access to your SharePoint site. I'll show you how to log in, export your customer table, and link Access tables to SharePoint lists. In Lesson 4, we'll look at managing permissions, distributing your database, inviting others to access your SharePoint site, and sharing your encrypted Access database with other users. Lesson 5 addresses how to track changes made to your records, dealing with hidden fields in your tables, and how to change or remove permissions from your database as needed.
