Is it possible to port over existing forms and reports to a data access page?

This is a heads up ProteanBeing:
Access 2007 no longer supports Data Access pages:

From the Help Files:
Microsoft Office Access 2007 no longer supports data access pages. If you want to deploy a data entry form over the Web and store the resulting data in Access, you can deploy your database to a Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 server and use the tools that Windows SharePoint Services provides.

If you open a database created with an earlier version of Access (a .mdb file), and that database contains Data Access pages, you can view the pages in Windows Internet Explorer. However, you cannot take any action with those pages.

It may not concern you now but eventually it will.
