Thanks

Any idea's ?
 
As far as I know, Access can't connect via http or ftp. If the file is
on your intranet you may be able to use a UNC path (e.g.
\\SERVERNAME\SHARE\folder\file.mdb); otherwise it needs to be dowloaded
to a local or LAN drive.
 
Access can conncet and link via Internet look at balloon help in link
dialog --
File name or Web address (http://)

That's what it says, but I don't know anyone who has made it work in
real life.
