Many hosting companies allow the ability to supply a "datasource" to store and retrieve data. You simply upload the database file(s) as the datasource. How you actually implement that database with a website depends on the technology used (ColdFusion, .Net, etc).MCSE 2003, MCSA 2003, LPIC-1, MCP, MCTS: Vista Config, MCTS: SQL Server 2005, CCNA, A+, Network+, Server+, Security+, Linux+, BSCS (Information Systems) -

You could either supply a front end to it (such as .asp search pages via tickbox) or investigate whether OLE sources can be aquired from a net source. (There is no difference with hooking you mdb up to IIS to access it via your own localhost webpage searches than there is to accessing it over the net.... theoretically!)
I have never heard of this kind of idea being utilised for Access mdb files. It's always via SQL Server which is a database designed to be accessed remotely. Whether that be from a internal network or the web. However, there is bound to be someone who has accomplished it, somewhere...Kam.
