One more ? on web work

[mrobyn]

Okay one more question. I am working on a dase for my small non-profit that has two offices in different states, if there a way to network access through the web, so that you don't have to have 2 different versions of the same data base to deal with? Some how having web bassed forms or something?

Not really a reply, just a notification of sorts. If you do get this to work, can you please send me the details? I have to make a database project for school, and the company that I selected would like to have their 10 members enter data from home computers on the company web page. my email is
Fitz_R_Me@yahoo.com

Thanks if you can help, and good luck.

Two Options...

1) Replication over the net

or

2} ASP (Active Server Pages)

I would go fo Option 2, but please don't ask me for further details as the topic is beyond the scope of this forum.
Read up on it or search out info on the web (there is plenty)

Good Luck

You can get FrontPage 2000 which has data base conection wizards to connect a web based form to Access.

Another option is to split the database, put the backend on one of the servers. The front end which includes all but the data (minimizes traffic across networks)would go to on of the other site Use PPTP to connect the front end/back end across the internet.
