Can I open a Microsoft Access file on my web site with Front Page.

[Peter7394]

I would like use FP 2003 to open and edit tables in a database that is on my
web site. I get the message "the file is outside your entranet or on an
untrusted site. Microsoft Access will not open the file due to potential
security problems. Download the database..." I want to keep the database
online, so I don't want to download it. I am told by the tech support of the
web service provider that I need Enterprise Manager to to open and edit the
Access database online. Is this true? If not, how do I do it? Thanks-

You risk corrupting the database when you open it via FP, it is best to export the database to your
desktop, make your changes and them re-import the database back into your web.

You can also create and edit tables within the database via ASP/VBScript.
