Important    Access Services 2010 and Access Services 2013 are being removed from the next release of SharePoint. We recommend you do not create new web apps, and migrate your existing apps to an alternative platform, such as Microsoft Power Apps.

You can share Access data with Dataverse, which is a cloud database upon which you can build Power Platform apps, Automate workflows, Virtual Agents, and more for the web, phone, or tablet. For more information, see Get started: Migrate Access data to Dataverse.

Before you publish your Microsoft Access 2010 as a Web application, you must run the Compatibility Checker to ensure that the database is compatible as a Web database. If the Compatibility Checker finds any compatibility issues with the macros in your database, it will display a macro error, that you should correct before you publish your database to the Web.

This article describes five possible macro conditions that may exist in your Access 2010application that can result in the macro error messages, and provides information to help you resolve the error.

For general information about Compatibility Checker errors, see the article Web compatibility check General errors.
