I'm sorry to post such a simple question, but i have looked high and low and cannot get a straight answer for this.
Let me explain the situation. My uncle has an Access Db on his laptop that he uses to maintain his shops inventory. He has a barcode scanner and a nifty program that tracks what he has in storage. The nifty program runs from a Access Db. Now, as you can imagine, he wants a website with all the online shopping facilities and other dongles he can have. So, to put thee problem simply: can he run a website off the Access db without having to move the db? All the packages i have looked at so far require the Db to be on the internet server; but i cannot do this otherwise the nifty program won't work. I'm really not looking to build this; is there an already made solution that will let me do this? all i need is a hosting solution that has the shopping cart pre-built, but that can access my Access db locally.
Thanks for any help you guys can give me...
Regards,
Kim
