ASP.NET WebForms are generated that preserve all the characteristics of the corresponding MS-Access Forms. For each project (Access database), CSS (cascading style sheets) are generated based on the properties of the Access Form's controls, that specify font and field characteristics including family, size, weight, back- and fore-ground colors, borders, text alignment/decoration, and special effects. The CSS Stylesheet is added to current VS project.
All MS Access field types (Text, Combo Box, Tab Control, Option Group, etc.) are defined using ASP and HTML controls. Absolute field positions and sizes are maintained on the ASP WebForm as well as tab order, shortcut keys and enabled/visible properties.
Single Form, Datasheet or Continuous Form Views are generated as specified by the Default View property. Pivot Table and Pivot Charts are not currently supported. The generated WebForm does not allow switching Form Views. Separate WebForms need to be generated to support alternate Form Views.
Form background image files and images contained in Form controls are copied to the images directory (see Getting Started). Only Linked images and Embedded bitmap images are saved.
Remarks
Unlike Access, which supports multiple column Combo and List boxes, ASP.NET Drop Down Lists and List Boxes only support one display column. When Access Combo/List Boxes specify multiple columns, the Bound Column is specified for the display column of the corresponding Drop Down/List Boxes.
Since ASP.NET does not support Input Masks, these properties are ignored. ASP.NET masked input controls are available from third-party vendors.
Any Access Form Validation Rule properties are ignored, however, all Validation Rules are converted to DBMS CHECK constraints or Triggers during the database migration phase. Appropriate error messages are displayed by the DBMS when Validation Rules are violated.
