Access Newsletter - October 2009

This is where you'll find information about Microsoft Access. We're only just starting this facility, so we'll be adding stuff in here more and more as time goes by.

The Access Show

There are a couple big announcements that recently occurred for the Access community. In partnership with Channel 9, Microsoft is launching a new show called The Access Show. It will feature Ryan McMinn, Clint Covington and others from the Access team. They will talk in-depth about what is new in Access 2010 and share feedback from the community. Additionally, at the SharePoint Developers Conference they disclosed more details about Access Services. Access Services is a new SharePoint 2010 feature that allows users to create web databases in Access, host them on SharePoint, and available through a browser.

Here is the inaugural episode and one of the first public demos of an Access Services application running in the browser:
