    kind of related...

    is it possible to deploy an app in one computer...and let the database on the server?

    it this case, then everybody on the intranet can install their copy of the program and access one database?

    thanx =)

    Intra net.. depends if they can access the server on the list. Probably slow if they are in buildings around the country but possible. Ask your network administrators whether it is feasible.
    An alternative (if you have asp) is to put the access (mysql or sql server) be on the intranet server and develop a couple of html forms to send the data to the database. Should be fairly fast and accessable with desktops and a browser (intranet).

    As to the linking to a server just with an ip address, not sure this is possible. If you find out and get a working version, post it up as there have been several posts about this. (search the forum - link/button at top)
