Access Database(s) deployed for users without MS Access and or - Microsoft Community


- in process of designing 2 databases freely distribute specific groups of people. desire users of them able add , remove data, want the databases closed , unmodifiable general user novice or advanced.

- first intended cemeteries , veterans organizations enable them locate graves of deceased vets.

- second weight management "helper" (calorie, protein, carb calculator), which intend donate va's move program (see http://www.move.va.gov/ more information move!).

- in both, user, again, should able add , remove data, print search results, not modify actual "program".

- these "standalone" such actual office application, access or excel, not required.

in nutshell, correct. keep in mind there excel viewer, no free excel allows data entry. access there free “runner” , word or excel there free “viewer”. different access runtime allows 1 run access application. power-point, word, excel, viewers (read without modifying) allowed.

so introducing “other” programs question challenge , other systems “readers” how pdf viewer works.

in case of access , runtime have more ability. process install access or runtime (they both large installs. either 1 “same” installing full access (but runtime version free).

once installed free runtime (or full edition), users free launching program. want ensure significant amounts of testing , design of application run “runtime”. need provide menus , forms , user interface – since built in navigating pane etc. not available runtime. , if have things linked tables have provide table-relinking routine. application have split (else not able issue bugs fixes , updates without overwriting users data). so  don't develop on long time , "then" try runtime - want day 1 develop runtime in mind (compile accdb accde, , re-name accdr test , "emulate" how runtime users experience application on developer machine.

because access quite large install (full or runtime identical in installing issues, access not suited wide distributon of programs (commercial). can done, lots of work on part.
