Re: Re: parse MS Word Template fields for legal documents

But Access (if used as a database in its own right, not just as a front end to to real database) is strictly one-user-at-a-time only. So this would not work in a multi-user set-up.

I believe the "single-user" issue was true for Access prior to Office2000. A single DB can be used by up to 10 users (I have seen 4). In any case, I was suggesting ODBC access (via the web) to the database, although I did not explicitly state that. Offense, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder, and a fantasy. By guaranteeing freedom of expression, the First Amendment also guarntees offense.	[reply]

Indeed you're right. I should have checked. I seem just to have given up on Access as a database and use it only as a front-end now. CountZero "If you have four groups working on a compiler, you'll get a 4-pass compiler." - Conway's Law	[reply]
