? Best way to get Access database active on internet ??

I have a database with reports that I want to have accessible on a website,
preferably searchable on the website.
Can Access databases be put on Unix machines and work without using Perl?
Any easy way?
If not, any way to publish reports by section to separate web pages?

Thanks for any info

Fred

Jet databases are ODBC compliant, but I never heard of one being _used_ on a
*nix system. They can, of course, be stored on a *nix system, and retrieved
from there.

I've stored the data tables for a split database on a *nix server and
accessed them from an Access front end. Although it was "multiuser", there
was never more than a single user accessing it at any given time -- thus we
avoided the locking issues that plagued some back in the '90s (and may
still, for all I know).

Access and the Jet database engine, however, are designed to run only in the
Windows environment.
