Read/Write Remote Data on Web Server

by joe giaquinto . Updated 25 years, 2 months ago

I have a need to read and write data to several Access databases on my web site in order to update/post this information for web visitors. The server is not in-house so we can’t make a connection to it locally over the network.

What would be a good VB/client-side application solution to send/receive data to this remote server?

Can I make a remote connection to it’s DSN?

Should I use an FTP control or transfer control or browser control?

Please be detailed in your explanation – code sample or specific articles or books, etc.

The remote site is running NT 5.0 with security.

(I am looking for a solution that runs in VB, not ASP/HTML using VBScript.)
