Putting Access Database Online

I see quite a few ISP's offering the serving of "ms-access" data. What is
the situation with that? Are they offering a service where your tables must
be converted to some flavor of SQL and then attached, or can you really
upload MDB's?

If you can upload MDB's, are they really talking about being able to access
that data with Access, or are they referring to uploading an MDB and then
using only Data Access pages?

Finally, if these guys actually do host an mdb backend online to which you
can attach with an Access or VB front end, how does the data transfer work?
I assume there would be no server-side queries and therefore all the data
has to travel through the wire before appearing on your screen. This sounds
like it would be pretty slow.

Thanks,

Mike

Hi
They mean using the Access from we pages via ASP or PHP. You can
upload MDB files using ftp but can't use the Access fromt end with
them.

Hi, I have read the MS documentation and researched this matter, but I could not find the answer to my question. If this is online or in a FAQ somewhere, I apologize in advance. How difficult would it be to host an Access Database online so that people who visit the web site can read and modify the database? I know one can create data access pages, but those are read only.

Hey guys- not sure where this post fits in, so I cc'd a few other groups as well- hope you dont mind... I have someone creating a database for me in Access 2000 (or is it called XP?).

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
