I developed an application (in Access2007) and there is one report that I
want to have (semi)online for my clients. One has told me that 'sharepoint'
will do. Is there anywhere a trial sharepoint services website so I can
evaluate some issues?
 
Luciano,

Whereas SharePoint integration with Access 2007 is awesome, you need to
be aware that it relates to the data (tables) being kept in lists on a
SharePoint site, and linked to from the Access application. There is no
provision for Access forms or reports to be online. If you were using
SharePoint, you would need to separately build a web interface to show
the data.

The other option is saving the report from Access as HTML or as a PDF
file, and putting that on the web server, with a link from the
applicable web page. You can then use code within the Access
application to upload the report via FTP to the web server, whenever the
data is changed.
