Looking to Share your Microsoft Access Database online with other users?

Using our Remote Desktop Servers you can share your MS Access Database with others and access it online.

With our MS Access hosted remote desktop servers each user has their own desktop and each can open the "front end" MS Access Application to view/edit edit the data.

How to install your MS Access Application Database to share online on a Windows Remote Desktop Server is a simple and quick process:
  • Split your database if you have not already (You will now have 2 folders). This process enables MS Access to alert a user if the record they are changing has already been updated so they can reload it before editing and saving it. If your MS Access database is developed for multiple users
  • Copy the 2 folders to the remote desktop server (Copy them to a folder under C:\Users\Public)
  • Now open Access by clicking on the front end file you just copied to the server
  • You will see an error because the tables are in a new location - Click on "External Data" and --> "Linked Table Manager" select all tables and browse to the new folder location C:\Users\Public\....
That is it. You now have an Microsoft Access database each of your users can share and access online via a Winodws remote desktop by clicking on the access front end file.

**If you place your database files in a folder not under the "Public" folder you will need to change the permissions on the folders to enable all users to have the rights to execute your MS Access application/database.

Host your Microsoft Access Database Online in the Cloud for easy Access

You can easily move your Access 2021/2019, Access 2016 and Access 2013 database to a cloud desktop (Remote Desktop Hosting).  Your Access Database can then be run from most any tablet or computer including windows computers which have the Remote Desktop Client (RDP) or on an Apple IOS computer by installing the remote desktop client. 

With Riptide's Remote Desktop Server offerings your MS Access database is hosted on a dedicated Windows OS you control and not on a sharepoint deployment. You can also install other applications such as Microsoft Office and Accounting Software as well as store and share company documents on our Remote Desktop Servers.

Riptide provides a full Windows RDS/Terminal Server for hosting your MS Access application in the cloud (rather than a Sharepoint hosted option or only the database files).  Both your front end and backend MS Access Application are online.

Install your MS Access application One Time for all users to have access online.

You only install your Microsoft Access Database once on the server for all of the users on the server.  This simplifies adding a new employee or user who needs to access the database as well as upgrading the access database since it is only installed once on the hosted server.

Install and run other programs in addition to your Access Database (included)

We offer you more than just Microsoft Access online. In addition to MS Access you can also save files and install other programs you would like to host online in the cloud.  This makes it very convenient to access your programs from any computer, share files, print to a local printer.  (When you host your Microsoft Access Database online you can easily work from home or any place where you have an internet connection. You laptop or tablet give you full access to all the programs and files you have loaded on the remote desktop server.)

Best Performance for your Microsoft Access Database with Desktop Hosting

Access 2021/2019, Microsoft Access 2016, MS Access 2013 will all run on Remote Desktop Hosting Servers (formerly called Terminal Servers) giving you access anytime you are online.  Running your access front end and backend database online makes for a very fast and responsive user experience.  This is because the data doesn't move between the server and your computer, only the pixels for your screen.  Running the backend and front end on the same server also means you only install the front end GUI one time.
