Hi, I am using windows applications. I am in need to connect my Ms-Access database from remote. And I also have website. And I copy-paste my database to my website. public_html folder. Now is it possible to connect my Database with website path? Once possible kindly explain the details to get update myself, will be very helpful.

I tried like the following way...
I try from my connection string
Connection String:
MyDBConStr = "Provider=Microsoft.ace.Oledb.12.0; Data Source='\\\\100.101.102.10\\abc\\user\\filemanager\\files?path=\\domains\\mywebsite.com\\public_html\\mydatabsename.accdb'; Persist Security Info=False ";
 
In general, leaving a database naked and exposed to the Internet is a really bad idea.

Furthermore, Access uses file locking on its files to support multi-user/multi-process access. There is no way to do that over a HTTP protocol because of the statelessness of HTTP.
 
Moving out of WinForms forum and into one of the database forums...
