Viewing Database shortcut

[florida41]

I have a web page where I pull up an Access 2000 database in IE and it works.
To set it up for it to work with an IE Browser I have to create a shortcut in a form (called "Form1") in the database and the shortcut gives me the title:
Shortcut to Form1 in theDatabaseName.maf

So my html part looks like this as a link:

<a href="Shortcut to Form1 in theDatabaseName.maf>link to database</a>

I know it is a shortcut but what are the negatives about pulling it up in my IE browser like this??

Is there another way to get an Access database to come up in IE6 Browser??
