    Linking an Access database to a web interface

    With the help I've received from here today (and am extremely grateful for) I've now got a database sat in Access. Didn't expect to have got this far as I loaded Access for the first time two days ago.



    The database in question is for a friend's company where he manages a large number of properties (several thousand) and only the office needs full access to the database on a shared network.

    What I'd like to do (if possible) is to make an interface for the web where selected fields from selected tables will be exported to a MySQL database. This secondary database will be where agents can log in and view information on specific properties and other bits and pieces.

    My question is how simple would it be to have selected data exported daily? This doesn't have to be an automated process (ideal if it was)

    You would probably connect to your MySQL db via ODBC connection. Give this link a try. http://www.vbmysql.com/

    You'll probably have to install this
