Access 2000 database on IIS5 (win2kpro)

[Cake]

Hi everyone,

I'm wondering how to get IIS5 to recognize a .mdb file.
I know I can use Access 2000 .mdb files, modify and extract
information from them through an .asp script on another
IIS5 server I have access to (only I'm not admin there).
The way "that" server is setup, is being able to put
multiple databases (.mdb) on the server without having to
register them and they will work ok independently.

This should be fairly simple, but I have not a clue.

I'm planning on trying to make Access 2000 database online,
where the staff can extract data and reports online. Using
this same database, I can have people take detailed
surveys. There will be different surveys, different times
of the year, so I need multiple databases.

Hope I've explained this well enough...

You must add Datasources on the webserver for all databases.
Do this in control Panel under datasources ODBC.
Now you simply have to learn ASP or a similar language that can integrate web with Databases.
