Assuming your server in the office is available now on the web, that's the end of it... assuming you are technically adept enough to interact directly with a SQL server .....

Unfortunately, I may not know the answer to your questions.
I can tell you that the database is accessible from my desktop either by using a program that has an ADP extension and opens with Microsoft Office Access, or by using an internet URL that takes me to a login page. I was told it was a Microsoft SQL database.
My Server 2000 computer is not currently accessible on the web, and I don't know the technical stuff of how to make it so.

I would like to use it simply because it is already paid for, however if it is unreliable due to end-of-service issues then I may consider a different option.
