Microsoft Access
MS Access is a highly flexible, robust, and reliable database program. Microsoft Access is the leading relational database management system in the world. We are a Microsoft Access developer company creating database applications for your business.
SQL Server
SQL Server is an enterprise relational database management system from Microsoft. We use SQL Server as the database server for data storage and data retrieval to and from Microsoft Access as well as other software applications, like ASP.NET and Azure.
ASP.NET
Microsoft's application framework for web development produces dynamic web pages. ASP.NET provides web programmers with a platform for building dynamic web sites, web applications (web apps), and web services that require a web solution.

Lisa Dosch, Motion Picture Editors Guild - Local 700
Alison Balter at MS Access Solutions developed the application that helps us to properly service all of our members. This program handles billing, payments, tracking of jobs worked, available list, and other important data about our members. The system automates many tasks that were previously performed manually, allowing our employees to more cost-effectively use their time. This client/server system is used by employees in our Minneapolis MN and New York offices. MS Access Solutions and their staff worked with us to develop the necessary specifications and design documents, and then programmed, tested, and implemented the application throughout our organization.

Other Properties of a Form
Additional properties of a form, although quite powerful, do not fit neatly into any of the other property categories. Microsoft places these properties under the Other properties of the form. They are listed here:
- Pop Up indicates whether the form always remains on top of other windows. This property is often set to Yes, along with the Modal property, for custom dialog boxes.
- Modal indicates whether focus can be removed from a form while it's open. When the Modal property is set to Yes, the form must be closed before the user can continue working with the application. As mentioned, this property is used with the Pop Up property to create custom dialog boxes.
- Display on SharePoint Site determines whether the form will be displayed on the SharePoint site.
- Cycle controls the behavior of the Tab key in the form. The options are All Records, Current Record, and Current Page. When the Cycle property is set to All Records, the user moves to the next record on a form when she presses Tab from the last control on the previous record. With Current Record, the user is moved from the last control on a form to the first control on the same record. The Current Page option refers only to multipage forms; when the Cycle property is set to Current Page, the user tabs from the last control on the page to the first control on the same page. All three options are affected by the tab order of the objects on the form.
- Ribbon Name specifies the ribbon to apply when the form opens. Chapter 23, "Working with and Customizing Ribbons," covers ribbons.
- Shortcut Menu, Shortcut Menu Bar property indicates whether a shortcut menu is displayed when the user clicks with the right mouse button over an object on the form. The Shortcut Menu Bar property lets you associate a custom menu with a control on the form or with the form itself. As with a standard menu bar, a shortcut menu bar is created by choosing Toolbars from the View menu and then selecting Customize.
- Help File and Help Context id enable you to associate a specific Help file and topic with a form.
- Has Module determines whether the form has a class module. If no code is associated with your form, setting this property to No can noticeably decrease load time and improve your form's performance while decreasing the database's size.
- Fast Laser Printing determines whether lines and rectangles print along with the form. When this property is set to Yes, you'll notice a definite improvement when printing the form to a laser printer.
- Tag property is an extra property used to store miscellaneous information about the form. This property is often set and monitored at runtime to store necessary information about the form. You could use the Tag property to add a tag to each of several forms that should be unloaded as a group.
- Use Default Paper Size property is used to determine if when printed, the form prints using the default paper size setting.
