how do I go about making a connection between apache-tomcat and MS access ,
both running on windows xp. ?
 
Access is a file server database. Once your server is setup and drive
letters defined, you connect the front-end (Access) to the data back-end
(Jet) like any other server. For a connection, you'd use an ODBC driver (or
a Java based one) and write your web page using JavaScript and SQL. For
server considerations, try:

http://tomcat.apache.org/index.html

Most people running the Jet engine, run it on an IIS server, and that's as
simple as installing it, starting the service (automatic), and creating a
DSN to connect.
