Details: When my Access DB opens, it is prompted for a user to establish who is using the database to use in emailing/logging. This data is referenced from an online table (SharePoint) that requires authentication.
Check out this link for details on the authentication.
Question: My envisioned solution is to open the database and for it to capture the hang into an error handler; then move to an offline version of the database to allow the user to continue working when the SharePoint site is unavailable. How might I accomplish this?
Sudo Code:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
- User opens database
- Authentication prompt pops up
- If user can't/doesn't authenticate within "time"
- Cancel authentication and work offline
I have looked {elsewhere} as an option, but I am not having any luck with forcing SharePoint to work offline.
