Move Access application to web

[Mark H]

I am presently using Access 2003. But I can get a newer version if necessary.
I want to put an Access application on the Web. It is interactive. Viewers
answer questions and then see answers.

How do I do it? Do I need a compiler? Where do I get the compiler?

Many thanks.

You can use SharePoint to create a web experience with Access. Access 2007
is much easier than 2003. The next version will be even easier. Investigate
what you need to do in a SharePoint newsgroup.

You can also build asp/asp.net forms and use them to access your database.
In both cases you'll need a server. In the first case a SharePoint server.
In the second, almost any webserver will work, and they are available from
most ISPs.

The bottom line is that you don't; instead somebody re-writes it
in something like .NET.

Some will say there is built-in web access in 2003, but my
limited experience is that it is not real-world.
