[AccessD] Across across the internet

It is just that, a web/internet (asynchronous) connection is too unstable to
support a traditional AccessFE/BE (synchronous) connection. MS SQL engines
are designed to work in this type of environment.

Subject: [AccessD] Across across the internet

I know that the common wisdom is that Access Fe talking to an Access MDB
across the internet is a 
bad idea.  But what about talking to a SQL Server BE across the internet?
The issue with the MDB is 
corruption.  SQL Server doesn't corrupt, at least in the same fashion.

Has anyone tried this?
