Hi,

I just created an access database and now I need to put it online so that
employees can access it from anywhere.
Your assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Thank You.

Well, Access cannot be run over the internet. You basically need to provide
your users with remote control software and a VPN connection so they can run
Access remotely on one of your servers or else re-write the interface
portion of the application in a web-based platform so they can use a web
browser to do it.

You need to learn ASP or PHP, then, or perl, or java, or a technology that
is suited to the task you want to perform.

If you don't want anything terribly complex, this may point you in the right
direction
