How can I connect (client side) to my access 2003 database using a web
page? I've searched the web and I'm looking for bare bones examples
to: 1) connect 2) display data 3) update data 4) delete data. HELP!!!

You haven't found much help as this is not a recommended practice. JET (the
database engine used by Access) is not designed to work as a web-hosted
database. While it's technically possible, it is not scalable.
