I have an access database on the web.... how can i connect to my database from vb.net and display, change, save data from a web site?

I have a book that only covers connecting to a database on a local machine....

also how can this be done using a dsn-less connection?

p.s. - I have purchased a secure certificate for this site... how do i maintain a secure connection from my program to the web server?


Thanks,

Anjari
