Almost - Chilisoft ASP will let you talk to the Access mdb file but the
database itself will HAVE to reside on a MS platform. If you have an NT/W2K
server available in your colo facility, you could make this work. Otherwise,
I'd just do what Per suggests and convert to MySQL. (I haven't done this
yet, so can't help you there.)
