    Searchable database embedded to website

    Hello All,



    I have large database that I would like to embedded to my website, and have a search form, where people can search either by last name or Zip Code, and then see the result in the website. Can Access do this, and if so how to make this happen. Or is there other databases that easier. Thank you

    No, Access alone cannot do this. Need other software that uses Access tables. Like SharePoint, ColdFusion, ASP, ASP.net.

    Data enabled and interactive web page is not easy. Fairly common topic. Did you search forum?

    Yes I did search but found not much. I used to use Godaddy Easy Database, but they discontinued. I found another one, but they are charging too much. $300 per month for large data. https://www.zoho.com/creator/. I have the data in Excel, and I want to upload and have people search by last name or Zip Code

    My comments still basically same. Pay for a service or acquire software and build your own.

    Years ago I did experiment with Access, ColdFusion, ASP, IIS, Apache, XML to get data loaded to interactive web page. Wasn't easy. Didn't keep it.
