Does anyone use Sharepoint with Access. Is it difficult to do.
I am looking at a new position and one of the things they are looking for is Access and Sharepoint....
 
I have posed the same question on other forums without any responses.

Is Access Services one of the things they are asking about?
 
I'm no expert on this as I haven't even tried it but I have seen some demos from MS and other Access MVPs. Most of us (MVPs) don't use the Access Services in Sharepoint 2010 because of the lack of functionality. We typically like to create apps with lots of VBA and other advanced features. Access 2010 with Sharepoint doesn't support VBA and some other querying syntax.

You may need to do some searching. I just got this book Access 2010 Programmer's Reference today and noticed it has a chapter on "Working with SharePoint".

I haven't done this yet..., but will be looking at InfoPath one day when I have time. It looks as though it might be able to do something in this line.
