Upload Problem?

Question

This is the situation, let us say that you created a Visual Basic executable program that has connections with a database, let us say that your database is MS Access. Using FTP, you upload your webpages so that it can be viewable online. But what if one of your webpages need to connect to your Visual Basic executable program, how can you upload your .exe program to FTP?
Please solve my problem. The situation above is what I am experiencing today. I created a web page for submission but the problem is that FTP cannot support executable program.
A technician says that I need to have a very own server to support my .exe files and to call from the uploaded webpage to local server, but the machine must be turned on all the times. Is this true? Please suggest or give information on how to solve my problem.

Thanks.

Answer 1

Yes, it is true.

In Access, read the Help files. It sounds to me like you are out of your league OR didn't pay attention in school.

Then, set up a server on your PC and follow the Access Help instructions..
