The TSI Form/Report to Data Access Page Wizard converts existing forms and
reports in an Access 2000 database to Data Access Pages. It will preserve as
much of the layout and formatting as it can, and it will insert the code in
the form/report event procedures behind the DAP (commented out), to help you
move on to the step of converting that code to VBScript (resources with
examples are contained in the readme.txt file).
The wizard will place the controls in a very similar fashion to where they
are on your forms and reports. Reports that are tabular will place all of the
controls on your DAP in a single row. This is not particularly desirable, but
DAP's don't have any stopping points. The wizard will place the event
procedures from behind your forms or reports in the appropriate corresponding
events on your DAP (commented out). It will also insert the names of any
non-event procedure calls and macro calls behind the Data Access Page (also
commented out).
This wizard is localized into every language into which Access itself is localized, by using the Office UI Language for your Access installation.
