asp and access...am i mad?

[ralphonzo]

is it worth wasting time trying to link an mfc application to an access database via asp, or am i just going to end up looking for a high building after hours of fruitless toil?

Access isn't the world's best DB but if it came free with your machine, it is better than nothing.

Idunno about mad, but I cant see why you would want to let an MFC app go through ASP. Go through the ODBC layer if you can

Do you want to create an MFC ActiveX control to use in an ASP page where the ActiveX control connects to a MS Access database? Sure that can be done, but be warned that MS Access does not scale well.

If your talking about a MFC Desktop application then you need to explain your requirements and architecture a bit more completely.
