    Using my Access database from remote

    Sorry for bothering again with this issue. I've been looking everywhere on the web but found no viable solution. My minimal target is being able to just view my data online, e.g., via browser on the phone, no need to edit/delete/insert from the web view. I could also assume to create a view in...

    Using my Access database from remote

    Yes, it could be a temporary solution just to try, but is not really what I was looking for ... I don't have a real server and this would mean keeping my laptop always on even when I'm not at home, that is not feasible for me

    Using my Access database from remote

    Correct! I would prefer to be able to move the data online somewhere, but using what? MySQL? I could accept having my main database on my laptop and then periodically syncing it online ... but how? And how about accessing data in a safe way, with a minimal form for data selection?
