Displaying an Access Database on the web...

Hi, I need some help with my site.
My problem is that I want to use a database to display, well, all that's in this database.
I've created it in Microsoft Access. It works on my computer but it doesn't when I've uploaded it. someone asked if I had a ASP, which I don't currently have.
I want to know if anyone knows of an alternative solution to showing an Access database info on a webpage...

Thanks for any help...

Use MySQL - if you want to use Access with MySQL check out:

Thanks babydutka, I'll take a look at that and get back here...
And yeah Echo, I use html pages, I tend to remain with using old stuff instead of new... like Flash 5, PaintShop 6.1, Frontpage & Notepad, and... Yahoo Instant Messenger 4! Sadly version 4 didn't work properly, so I prefer version 6 but it gives trouble also, so I'm going to upgrade it later.
So yeah I guess I will try using an asp which I will now have to sit and read about and learn :p It may not be a bad thing...

If you don't want to go the whole hog of learning asp you can export the data to real pages using DB to HTML technology. It's a lot quicker and easier. xlinesoft.com has some great programs or just Google DB to HTML.

Hey thanks. That's sort of what I'm looking for since all I want is to show the DB content, not to update it or anything... I'll check and try it as well and then get back to you...
