I am looking for some advise. I created an Access Database for a church
directory.  We would like to put the information on the churches web site. I
was thinking maybe we should create a PDF, but I have no idea which way to
go.  I know there are a lot of smart people here, so I am turning to you.
Thanks for any advise you may give.

For MS operating systems:
First, check with your ISP to see if they support Access databases, and ASP(Active
Server Pages). If they don't have someone you can actually talk to, my opinion would
be to find a different ISP. Likely they're not going to tutor you, but technical
issues will arise which need to be resolved.

You can install a web server on your machine to develop and test with.

Then you'll need to learn to write the ASP or whatever web pages to display the data,
and edit the database. There are other ways besides ASP, and two flavors of ASP.

Be especially careful about what you put in the database, until you know a *LOT*
about how to make it as secure as possible, then still be careful.

It's not difficult, but it can be tedious. The learning curve can look daunting at first.

Or hire someone to do it for you.
Mike
