[AccessD] Access Back End in the Cloud

Rocky,

I have done this with a SQL Server back end located on an Arvixe Windows
hosting account. Pretty straight forward, but as John says it can be slow.
If this is going to be something other than mostly read and reporting
binding to ADO recordsets seems to be a good route.

Subject: [AccessD] Access Back End in the Cloud

Dear Lists:
 
Is anyone running an Access back end in the cloud with the front end local
to the desktop or laptop.  It has come up twice recently.
 
If so, what cloud service do you use?  It would seem that the cloud server
would have to be mapped to a logical drive on the local box so you could
navigate to the back end to link up the tables, yes?
