On a similar note, our journals list is in dBase. Anyone know of a good
way to search and display this information through the web?

Subj: Web access to Access Database
Has anyone out there created a database in Microsoft Access and
successfully made it searchable from their webpage?
The database was made in Access version 2.0 for Windows 3.1. It is
set up as a runtime version, meaning it doesn't need the main Access
2.0 application to run.
The database is of our journal title holdings (we currently don't have
any other automated system for this) and is set up to do searches on
title, keyword, and subject fields.
I have looked around some for solutions (script libraries, Microsoft's
Web page on Access). Exactly how to make this connection work is
still not clear to me.
Anybody ever done this? Or, any tips on what online or print sources
I could go to for specific answers?
Your help and ideas are much appreciated.
Thanks.
