GoldMine - Paradox
Michelle also has experience
managing conversion of Access tables structures into SQL or MySQL table
structures. Most often Access tables are converted into SQL or MySQL
table structures to accomodate a need for increased storage capacity or
an increased need for speed on network applications. Although Access tables can be
converted into more robust SQL or MySQL tables, all reports, queries and
data-entry screens remain in Access and link to the SQL (or MySQL)
table structure. SQL or MySQL is also used in web
database applications. SQL and MySQL can serve as a database foundation
for both web site databases and Access databases. Because of this moving
to a SQL or MySQL table foundation is a wonderful solution for
organizations wishing to share some of their data through their website.
A SQL or MySQL foundation allows organizations to manage, store and
report out information through an Access frontend, but still share their
data with clients, members and prospects over a website. |
