Linked 'tables' (access) local - to -remote?

Is it actually possible for a local access 2000 database to link to a remote
database online via linked tables...

I know www.aspfaq.com has spoken about possibliites (although not secure)
for local-remote hook ups but I just wanted to know how feasible a LINKED
TABLE scenario would be.

If this was possible it would solve so many administration problems and save
development time when it comes to building asp-admin pages to manage the
backend....

Thanks for feedback

I've never tried it - I stopped developing for Access a few years ago. From
what I've read in the newsgroups, there are definitely issues to overcome
when attempting to use such a linked database from asp. You should try a
Google search.

Hi all, I've got a Front End / Back End database that was working just fine. One day i opened the FE to find that if I tried to open one of the linked tables from the database window, nothing happened (hourglass for about 2 seconds then nothing). I tried relinking the tables and got the same response. (Access even completely bombed out once with a Dr Watson failure).

I have a split front end/back end system. However I create a number of local tables to carry out certain operations. There is a tendency for the front end to bloat so I have set 'compact on close' I think that I have read in some threads (althoug I cannot find them now) that others place such tables in a local, linked database. I could do this but I am interested to know what would be the advantages. And disadvantages, if any. Any...

Hi, Not sure if this is Access, SQL or ODBC. I have a SQL database with an Access Front End. They are linked with ODBC. Occasionally (it's happened 3 times in 4 months) some of the linked tables in Access become read only and I can't add new records to them. If I go into design view (in Access) the tables have lost their Primary Key. In SQL, they still work just fine. The only way I have found to get the links working again is to delete...

Hi, I have inherited an access userinterface that links to sql server tables through ODBC. The SQL server database contains data related to villages in my country and is populated by my collegues. Now I have to create an access data file for each village and deliver it to the local governments ... so they can see only their data using the same userinterface.

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,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...

Hello I'm a network technician in training and I need your help. I am currently learning how to create and manage the different types of VPNs and I have a question about LAN-to-LAN VPNs. The last exercise I practiced was to create a LAN-to-LAN VPN between two Pfsense firewalls, by using IPSEC protocols. I succeeded, with both firewalls in the same network. But I'm wondering if it's possible to do the same thing, with 2 Pfsense firewalls...
