Querying remote tables

Hi all,

I have a web site which allows our customers to write data via forms
into an access table stored on our ISP's remote server. My question is
how do I efficiently retrieve the data?

ISP tells me I am only allowed access to the web site via Frontpage.
Even if I could set up a linked table from my desktop PC I understand
that querying access tables over the internet would be inviting data
loss and corruption. The only way I can think of is to use asp to
retrieve records, displaying the data in IE then copy and paste to a
CSV file or access table.

Does anyone have another suggestion, this seems rather convoluted, is
there not a standard approach that I have missed?

I'm a bit of an internet virgin so any ideas would be most helpful

Chris

I am working on a project that will have about 500,000 records in an XML document. This document will need to be queried with XPath, and records will need to be updated. I was thinking about splitting up the XML into several XML documents (perhaps 50,000 per document) to be more efficient but this will make things a lot more complex because the searching needs to go accross all 500,000 records. Can anyone point me to some best practices...

I wonder if someone has any ideas about the following. I am currently producing some reports for a manufacturing company who work with metal. A finished part can contain multiple sub-parts to make up the finished part. The sub-parts can also be made up of sub-parts and those sub-parts can also be made up of sub-parts etc etc. All parts are contained within the same table and I have a seperate table

Hey all, Working on revamping our Intranet here and making use of the LDPA, Active Directory, Directory Services, etc. that .Net provides.

If I right-click "Servers" in Server Explorer instead and add a new server on my local intranet, I can browse its SQL Server databases, and under each...

Guys, I have an XML file which is 233MB in size. It was created by loading 6 tables from an sql server database into a dataset object and then writing out the contents from this dataset into an XML file. Once my application starts, I load this XML file into a DataSet object using "ReadXML" function. This creates a dataset in memory with 6 tables.

Hello, I need to come up with a stored procedure that will allow me to read data from another database. The database I need to read the data from is a UniData residing on a Unix server. The stored procedure needs to reside on my sql 2005 server. The task is very simple in Access as we have ODBC connections set up to the UniData via Informix (or IBM) UniData ODBC drivers.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
