MS Access Programming

What you need and Where to Begin

We are excited at the possibility to work with you and your organization. Whether you are a Do-It-Yourself programmer that needs additional assistance working through the rough spots in database development our your an organization that is in need of professional MS Access programming services for a custom application created to your specifications, we can help.

To begin, sometimes we start with a full set of specifications provided by the client and other times with only a client’s idea. Whatever you have in mind, we’d like to hear about it. There is never a charge for initial consultation. We can work by the hour or on a quoted project basis.

What to expect from Go ZapIt’s custom programming services

Our team has expertise in the following technology areas:

Platforms Linux, Microsoft Windows Servers
Web/application servers Apache, Microsoft IIS
Programming/development PHP, Perl, ASP.NET, VB.NET
Databases

MySQL, Oracle, MS SQL server, MS-Access

All of our MS Access projects strickly adhere to the Microsoft standards for MS-Access development. Each of our MS access programmers are employees of Go ZapIT. (No freelancers, contractors or off shore programmers.) Since 1986, our Lead Programmer has developed custom programming solutions for MS Access, FoxPro, Paradox, dBase, Visual Basic, and PHP/my Sql.

With your custom proposal, the project scope clearly defines the associated costs and openly outlines the deliverables. Every project includes a development timeline and calendar that identifies major milestones to accomplish in order to make the defined delivery date. For both your organization and Go ZapIT, the calendar tracks important project tasks and milestones and note who is responsible for each one.

What can be done with MS Access

MS-Access programming is the right approach for countless applications. MS Access is a cost effective software programming tool that allows your organization to create and deploy complex database management systems such as:

  • Customer relationship management (CRS) system
  • Inventory management systems
  • Customer order systems
  • Membership database systems
  • Resource scheduling systems
  • Project development management systems
  • Time and billing tracking systems
  • Asset management systems

MS Access is a powerful database can use to store all kinds of information from a simple list of contact names to an inventory catalog with tens of thousands of products. Once information is stored in Access database, it’s easy to find, filter, analyze, and print.

Supported MS Access versions

We regularly work with Microsoft Access 97, 2000, 2002 & 2003 and SQL Server 2000 & above. Go ZapIT has also migrated MS Access applications to use SqlServer as the backend.

Have an existing MS Access database?

There are literally millions of existing MS Access database programs being used daily by organizations and businesses. As business models or organizations change, the need to make enhancements to the existing Access programming come up. When you call on us, we make it our job to become familiar with your existing code and propose recommendations of the best approach for adding features or making database enhancements to existing applications.

MS Access and SQL Server integration

No tool is for every job, of course, and the use of MS-Access Programming is no exception. There is a point where an Access database is too large for efficient performance and it is time to consider an upgrade to a Microsoft’s SQL Server database.

If your project would benefit from a SQL Server database, you have options. For example:

  • Design and build the database structure, then host it on our secured database servers
  • Migrate an existing MS Access database to your personal Sql Server

Out of state Access Programming

We work with a variety of organizations and companies across the United States. Our clients have chosen us because they understand it’s more important to find the best company for their project needs based on the ‘total package’; capabilities and service.

We use phone conferences, email, FTP, CD-ROMs, web conferencing, Remote Desktop, shared project plans and many other techniques to communicate with you and deliver a top-quality system. For larger systems, we will travel to your location to meet with your key staff.
