With Remote Desktop/Access, you get full access to your work computer via an Internet or network connection. For example, you can connect to your office computer from home and work with files, programs, and resources as though you were in front of your computer at work.

Remote access: - The ability to log onto a network from a distant location. Generally, this implies a computer, a modem, and some remote access software to connect to the network. Whereas remote control refers to taking control of another computer, remote access means that the remote computer actually becomes a full-fledged host on the network. The remote access software dials in directly to the network server. The only difference between a remote host and workstations connected directly to the network is slower data transfer speeds.

It means you can access something remotely, outside of its normal context.
For example, computers running Windows have "Remote Desktop," which is is used to access computers remotely on different networks. In order to use my computer at work from my home, I use remote access via the Remote Desktop program in Windows on my computer at home to get onto my work's computer network.

It allows you to access another computer through the Internet when on-line. You can do it if you go to Start - All programs - accessories - communication - remote desktop access. You have to know the other computer IP address and have the permission to access it.
