Must I have to change to Oracle?

[Guest]

Hi,
I have an Access application that deals with Laws, here in Brasil. I`d like
to access that application or at least the mdb file from anywhere I go. So I
need to access that thoght the web. They say that I would only acomplish that
if I change all to Oracle and change the application to something like a page
in web. Is it realy true??? Can I have to change to Oracle really????
Thanks.

Changing to Oracle is something you should NEVER have to do. Access is
perfectly fine for light web usage. We handle 5,000 hits a day with an
Access database. I have heard of as much as 50,000 hits a day, but I
wouldn't recommend that. Even if you go beyond Access's capacity, I'd
recommend using almost any other database than Oracle, which is cumbersome
and extremely expensive to use.

Take a look at MSDE instead.

There are many solutions to your problem, however; I recommend that you ask
a professional.
