Using Access with a web interface

[davesmith202]

I want to use my browser to view/edit some data in a mdb file. Can someone point me in the right direction of what I need?

Thanks,

Dave

I've found a lot of code here:

Are you saying I need an asp page? To I need special software to connect to the Access database mdb file?

 

[pbaldy]

Need an ASP page? No, I'm sure there are many ways to connect. ASP is the one I have experience with.

Ok, so my mdb file is on my server in my office. I am at my workstation. Don't I need some kind of interface between a webpage and a mdb file? Like something so you can match up the protocols? Like a web server or something?

You need an IIS server. That's easy enough to install. Go through the ASP tutorial and it will become clear.

What he said.

I assumed that this was for a website, so you'd already have that running.
