Is it possible to consume a WCF service in MS Access?

We are thinking about centralising some or all of our data access. I thought a good way to do this would be via WCF. However, lot开发者_Python百科s of our applications are built in MS Access (a whole other story!).

So, is it possible to consume a WCF service in MS Access?

I know consuming web services is possible (although I don't know the details). Is it similar for WCF?

Yes, but you'd consume them as web services. Just use one of the HTTP bindings for WCF, and it becomes a web service. Simple.

Create a COM Class in dot.net to Access the web service.

Attention: The App.Config will not readed.
