NetworkSolutions.com will let you host an Access app. I have been poking around for a hosting company and just happened to notice this a few weeks ago.

I see (said the blind man, as he picked up the hammer and saw). Pretty much everything you want to do, you could do with a home setup. (Reliable ISP with a static IP address and domain name, UPS, server OS mirrored drives). I personally don't know of any hosting site out there that let's you host an Access application.

Drew, There are a few reasons: 1. There will eventually be a front end/UI/webpage for people to subscribe to this service and need to be available. 2. Right now I use docmd.sendobject to send the email..fine for a few emails...but I will need to send 1000s (hopefully)...thought it easier to pay for a site with email capability 3. I'm trying to get as mobile as possible...don't want to be tied to that single machine...site goes down...hosted =I call someone...Home=I fly home. Thanks, Mark A. Matte P.S...Most of the db's I have created were for very specific tasks...and never had a need to create something on this scale (availability scale)...typically never more than a few users. But my biggest uncertainty is what 'engine' can drive this thing. > Date: Tue, 13 Nov 2007 11:49:53 -0600 > From: DWUTKA at marlow.com > To: accessd at databaseadvisors.com > Subject: Re: [AccessD] From Access to Hosted site??? > > Just curious, why don't you want this running from your house? > > Drew > > -----Original Message----- > From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com > [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Mark A Matte > Sent: Tuesday, November 13, 2007 11:18 AM > To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving > Subject: [AccessD] From Access to Hosted site??? > > > Hello All, > > I have asked questions related to this topic before...and honestly, > without this list I would have never got this thing to work as > is...but now its time to expand.
