Get Started Faster and Easier than Ever BeforeHarness the power of the community in Access 2010. Build on database templates created by others and share your own designs. Use new prebuilt database templates available on Office.com, designed for frequently requested tasks, or select from community-submitted templates and customize them to meet your specific needs.
Create a Centralized Landing Pad for Your DataIntegrate your Access reports using multiple data connections and information linked or imported from other sources. With improved Conditional Formatting and calculation tools, you can create rich and dynamic reports with visual impact. Access 2010 reports now support data bars, enabling you and your audience to more easily track trends and gain insight.
Access Your Application, Data, or Forms from Virtually AnywhereExtend your database to the Web so that users without an Access client can open Web forms and reports via a browser and changes are automatically synchronized. Or work on your Web database offline, make your design and data changes and then sync them to Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 when you’re reconnected. With Access 2010 and SharePoint Server 2010, your data can be protected centrally to meet data compliance, backup, and audit requirements, providing you with increased accessibility and manageability.
Apply Professional Designs across Your Access DatabaseTake advantage of familiar and appealing Office themes and apply them to your databases with high fidelity both on the Access client and the Web. Choose from a variety of themes, or design your own custom theme, to get great looking forms and reports.
Add Navigation to Your Database Using Drag-and-Drop FunctionalityCreate professional looking, Web-like navigation forms to make your frequently used forms or reports more accessible without writing any code or logic. Choose from six predefined navigation templates with a combination of horizontal tabs or vertical tabs. Applications with a large number of Access forms or reports can be displayed using multi-level horizontal tabs. Simply drag-and-drop forms or reports to display.
Accomplish Your Work More Quickly and EasilyAccess 2010 simplifies how you find and use features. The new Microsoft Office Backstage™ view replaces the traditional File menu to let you publish, back up, and manage your database with just a few clicks.
