I've already made an exam application using VB6 and MS Access database. The admin project can be installed in one workstation and the client project in several workstations.

I use very basic networking. I have this text file where the location of the database file is stored (for the connection string).
I map the shared folder from the admin where the database is stored and write the location int the text file in the clients'.

It work perfect.

Is there a way to make it online, as in internet-access-online???
