is it possible to in a vb.net windows app to connect/read/write to an access
database that sits on a web server.

I can't use Jet 4.0 obviously because when I do it bombs saying "not a valid
filename."

SQL connection says it can't be intialized.

Any help would be appreciated.

I haven't tried this myself but you may want to try using the MS Remote provider connection string
(with the .NET OLEDB library):
