The application i have in mind is distributing ‘something’ to teachers so they can calculate/report grades for their classes. Report cards would be printed by the headmaster’s office.
So far i’m considering an Excel app, a standalone app written in Delphi, and Access. I have a fairly good handle on the first two, but the work looks significant in either of those cases. If i go with Access across the board, it looks like I would need to distribute the runtime version of Access, of which i know nothing.
Where would i find a good ‘discussion’ or ‘explanation’ of the capabilities of the runtime Access package? (or even a hint or two on whether to use Access for the app)
