  4. Can you link an Access database to a website?
You can link only to tables in another Access database. You cannot link to queries, forms, reports, macros, or modules. When you link to a table in an Access database, Access creates a new table, called a linked table, which maintains a link to the source records and fields.


What does linking in Access do?

Linking lets you connect to data in another database without importing it, so that you can view and modify the latest data in both the source and destination databases without creating and maintaining two copies of the same data. You can link only to tables in another Access database.

What objects can you import from another Access database?

You can import tables, queries, forms, reports, macros, or modules from one Access database into your current database. When you import an object, Access creates a copy of the object in the current database.

Which objects can be linked to a form in Access?

A form in Access is a database object that you can use to create a user interface for a database application. A "bound" form is one that is directly connected to a data source such as a table or query, and can be used to enter, edit, or display data from that data source.

The easiest way to connect to a database is to use a DSN-less connection. A DSN-less connection can be used against any Microsoft Access database on your web site.
