remote access

I use an access 2002 database to store customer orders and produce delivery
notes and invoices etc. Currently it is running one one site on a peer to
peer network of 3 PC's. I want to access the database over the internet from
a second site - is this possible? I have broadband web access at both sites
so speed shouldn't be an issue but I don't know how to make it work. Can I
access the current network over the web from the new site or do I need to
host the database on the web somewhere - if so where?

Thanks in advance

Big mistake, and bad assumption. Your high speed internet is about 100 times
slower then your office lan. If you were talking about 10, or 30% in terms
of difference here..then no big deal...but you are talking about a factor of
100 times...

You can read about some possible solutions here:
