VB.Net connecting Access 2003 Database

Gentlemen, I have a VB6 Project. Works fine in my PC, but once uploaded to my
website it can't connect to my Access database.
Questions:
1. Can VB.net connect with Access 2003 databases hosted in the same website?.
2. If so, how easy it is to convert the VB6 Project (has several forms, but
very little and simple code) to VB.Net?.
Please advise. Thanks. Guillermo.

Guillermo,

First some answers, there should not be a problem to use your Access
database usingVBNet. However mostly is the reason that it does not work the
fact that the user in ASPNET is ASPNET and that one needs to have access to
access.

The different versions from VBNet have inbuild VB6 to VBNet upgraders. The
2002 version was s**t, the 2003 version was usable and the 2005 version
should be good. I have not heard any expirience facts about that and I have
removed VB6 a long time ago.

Although this newsgroup is as well a fine newsgroup for your questions are
in my opinion better.

microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb
and
microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb.upgrade (a little bit less active now)

I hope this helps,

Cor
