has any tried running their ms access databases on a touch screen pc? (like the ones you can buy at best buy / future shop)
does it just work or do you need to build/rebuild using special APIs?
my gutt is telling me it should just work...
?
thanks.
 
Yes I've done it, I wrote a questionnaire access database. Should just work straight away. You might have to adjust the size of your forms due to the different screen resolution. I maximised all mine and hid any buttons for closing the forms as it was to be used by the public.
The PC should come with software for calibrating the sensitivity of the touchscreen.
The touchscreen we used was a Friendlyway Zurich 7000 from
 
Thanks drbtodd1971. We're thinking about just using an HP touch smart.
I'll give it a go!
thanks again.
