That's it in a nutshell. I have an Access database on a remote server, in this case, I'm in MO and it is in GA. What is the best way to be able to get the info for reports, mailing lists, etc.?
 
Access is not like SQL server. It will not broadcast an IP Address...therefore you cannot work withit directly through the internet. The only luck you may have is if you can setup a virtual private network via the internet and put the physical location over your virtual hard drive of your machine...

But I haven't specifically tried doing that...I'm speculating on whether it could work. Either way, even if it does you're still susseptable to internet traffic, your connection speed, etc, etc.
