10 New Member
Hi,
I want to develop a project that should be available at Online and at the same time it can be used with VB.NET Windows Based Application.
Both of them should use the same DataBase.

I'm asking about the Concept only not the code.

I want to use ASP.NET for website and VB.NET for windows Application and MS-ACCESS for Database

Thaking you in advance

You can allow connections to the database from both applications by placing it on a network share; however because this is an Access database I don't think it will fair too well under these circumstances.

So, I suggest creating a web service that both applications can use to do the functions that interact with the database. This could reduce file locking issues and other problems that you may experience with sharing an Access database like this.

Also, the web service can be called from anywhere if you want to host it on the internet and doesn't constrict your applications to existing on the same network.
