Hello all,

Here is my question:

I have been programming for a company using visual basic
as a front end to an access database. I am using ADO
as connection engine. We are thinking about putting our
entire accounting package, AR, AP, order entry.... on the
internet, but we have no idea were to begin. How can i
incorporate what i have already done with ADO and access
and build an internet based application. I guess i really
just need to know were to start.


Any suggestions are greatly appretiated,

If you haven't componentized/modularized your application, you'll probably need a complete rewrite in ASP & ADO.

If you expect more than 5-10 users at a time, you'll also want to convert your database to SQL server

If you haven't done any ASP, SQL server or made any COM components, you've got your work cut out for you :)

good luck

What you can do is to call the objects you have created in an ASP page. Use the server.createobject. And you need to setup a webserver with NT server and NT option pack.
