Default Web Database

Upsizing to Sql Server is one option.

If you do not already have a db created, then simply start with the tools
they give you. If you already have the table structure/data, then it would
be worth the transfer process to save you time.

Daniel - I understand you can't use Access to create a web database, but I
noticed on my host provider has a feature to upload a Access database and
covert it to SQL rather then creating a table within their SQL from scratch,
does that sound possible ?

If your host provides MySQL and PHP then you start to learn those 2 tools or
switch to another host. That said, MS Access is not geared towards
developing web based application with the exception of SharePoint...., but
that will not be part of a hosting plan anyways. Short answer, if you wish
to truly develop a web app., then start learning MySQL and PHP. There are
numerous free ressources to do so.

I am looking to create a web database for my web site. My web host provides
My SQL, can I use a Access database to store the data. Where can I find the
steps to create a web database - my host provider isn't very helpful. They
provide MySQL and Php MyAdmin.

Where do I begin ?

Thanks
