You really don't want to expose an Access db like that. Write an asp.net
page (or a web service) that accepts a request, creates a parameterized
request to the db, then sends back an appropriate reply.

Andrew's suggestion surely has merits. I may have to do what he suggested.
However, his suggestion poses a little problem for me - I have not done this
before :( I am sure I will learn this with just a little studying and
asking for help. In the meantime, you guys can give me a start. Thanks guys.
