Some guy just finished using one of my PCs to read his email at
his home office in the UK.
Looked to me like he was seeing a plain old MS Outlook screen
wrapped in a web browser window.
Is this possible?
If so, it sounds like a promising way to share an MS Access app
over the web without resorting to SQL Server.
If I'm on the right track so far,
----------------------------------------------------------------
- Could an MS Access app have just as well appeared in that
window?
- Would the window be hooked into some kind of virtual PC on the
Citrix server - i.e. could many users hit that same application
on the same server concurrently? (my apps all download a copy
of the front end to the user's "Temp" directory as defined by
Windows XP).
