Healthcare Access Database
The expert MS Access database application programmers at Help4Access offered three different solution options. The advantages and disadvantages of each solution was provided in detail and discussed. Marsh chose to have the Access 97 database converted to an Access 2003 database. The staff at Help4Access converted the database, thoroughly tested all functions of the database, and fixed all programming code that was not functional. The database was delivered to Marsh and Help4Access provided assistance in moving the data from the Access 97 database to the new Access 2003 database. This provided a seamless implementation while keeping the downtime of the database to a minimum.
