Web access an access database

Hi
In my Access database I used the option saveas in a form. I used Data-Access
Page and I can see the database in my IE.
But now I put this on the webserver (Windows 2000 server) and try to see the
database.
When I take a look on the server and watch it in IE I can see the database
and fill with data.
But now I go to my own station and try to get the page and get an error that
het can find d:\data\dtabase.mdb This data is local on the server. I've
tried to changed the string in webpage like http://etc.
What do I do wrong

You cannot access an Access database (MDB file) over the Internet with DAP;
as the JET OLEDB driver cannot work over the TCP/IP protocol. You need an
intermediate transport layer such as a VPN or RDS.

Bad news for you, RDS has been deprecated by Microsoft many years ago
because of security concerns. If you want more information about using RDS:

For more details, see the newsgroup
microsoft.public.access.dataaccess.pages.

For a solution to your problem, you will need to replace Access with SQL
Server or MSDE as the backend or use another solution than DAP; for example
ASP our ASP.NET.
