Subject: [dba-VB] Simple web project

I need some advice.  My wife is on the PTA.  She (I as her husband) was
tasked with a simple 
database for tracking volunteer work for the PTA.  They have to track (they
get "credit" for) hours 
that volunteers put in.

This is drop dead simple for an Access database, tblVolunteer,
tblVolunteerHours, and MAYBE 
tblLocation.  Plus a report to get the data out.  The problem of course is
that a database requires 
Access (or a runtime installation).  Thus...

Because it is such a simple database, I am thinking of doing it as a .Net
application and make it 
available on the web so that any authorized person can enter the data or run
the report.

Questions (how do I do):

1) Web hosting?
2) Security model?
3) Other issues I am not even considering?
4) Which .Net product?

Comments and advice requested.
