I like easy and simple. ;-)

I will give it a whirl and see how it goes. Thanks for the heads up.

You can get a free account with up to 10MB of storage.

I just signed up for their free account, created a simple table in MySQL
with their 
phpMyAdmin interface,  created a MySQL ODBC connection in an Access
application and 
added/editted and deleted a few records.   It worked fine.

This may be of interest to JC for his prisoner release back-end instead of
messing around 
with Hamachi and an Access BE.   I'm not sure if he is on the Tech list, so
I've sent this to the 
Access list as well  :)
