I have a customer that wants me to move Access to a web
server and have users access the back end from the
internet using HTML pages. I want to say I'm %99 it can't
be done but I want to check here first. Are there any
resources on the web that would support (or dispute my
claim) Thanks.
 
Sure it can be done. You would need to rewrite the interface in a web based
language such as asp or asp.net, but the data can be used just fine. I have
several web sites that use Access DBs as their data source. If there is
going to be a lot of traffic (we're talking several hits per second) or
there will be regular editing done, then you may want to consider jumping up
to a SQL based solution.

HTH,
Jim
