how can i remotely access the odbc dsn (for .mdb) that i've set up so I can add/update records remotely. i can ftp to the mdb file in a browser, but i cannot map a network drive to the same ftp folder.
Wondering why not? i think if i could see the mbd file then i can set up a local odbc connection...

This is not a supported feature.

In order for remote connection to work, we'll have to open a big hole on our network.
