File extension DAP description:

With the release of Access 2000, Microsoft broke down those barriers with the implementation of data access page technology. These pages can be created in a matter of minutes through the use of a simple wizard and published on your existing web server. Once they're live, Internet users will be able to access your data and make modifications to your database through their web browser. One note before we get started... Data Access Pages can only be created using Access 2000 (or later) and can only be viewed by users of Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 (or later). That said, let's get started! We'll create a data access page that will enable employees in your Human Resources department to modify personnel records through their web browsers. As in our previous tutorials, we'll be using the Northwind sample database.
