I need some help with access. We currently have a front end linked to a back end that is stored on our in house server. In an effort to become more mobile we would like to be able to access this back end from anywhere. We tried setting this up through dropbox, having the front and back end on it, but that didn't work! We are now looking to do this through SQL, but are having difficulty setting this up. We are by no means experts in this field! Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Check into SharePoint or Asp.net. I have not used either, just from reading about, might be suited to your situation.

An alternative would be to see if you have VPN access to any network drive. If so, you can split your Access db, put the backend on the network drive and a copy of each frontend onto the user machines. VPN in and you'll be good to go.
