In Ms Frontpage, I had a form collect data into an Access database from an ASP page. Is their anyway I can set up an access database on my desktop to connect to the database stored on my web hosts server, so that I can view and use the data without havind to download the mdb file al of the time.

I basically just want to have a blank copy of an MS Access database on my desktop with linked tables to the one on the web.
 
If you have filesharing access you can just copy a shortcut to the database onto your desktop, will be the same thing only easier to setup and easier to connect.
