Hello,

Does anyone know the code for a html wweb page to open an access dayabase? the ref i have so far is:

<td><p align="center"><a href="V:\Volkswagen Central Reporting\Primary Stock Database\Primary Stock Report.mdb"><img src="../Images/Image3.gif"

but it comes up with the run box, then saying it’s not an authorised publisher.

Is this going to be the problem due to systems?

If so i presume i'm just going to have to sned the link to the folder instead of the actual file?

thanks in advance
 
If by "open the Access database", you intend to actually run the database off the web server, I would *strongly* recommend against it. This will definitely corrupt Access.

If you just wanted to display some reports for users on browsers, consider using PHP, ASP, or other server side scripting to retrieve the data from Access. Access 2003 and earlier does have Data Access Pages (HTML pages), but it's only OK for intranet, not for the entire world.
 
I think you should try w3school.com.Its really best for HTML services so good luck..
