Yes it is definately possible. i can give details about how to connect if you can tell me which databse you are using. incase us are using Oracle I would recommend you to use any of the type 4 driver provided by the Oracle Corp.You need specify the information about Remote address , port, Database UserName and Password in the driver configruation.
If you post your code i can explain you in detail where excatly u need to make changes.
thats all.
I am still on the designing process ...
I am comfortable with using MS Access with JDBC on local machine only.
In the remote machine, there are Oracle, InstantDB and HSQL drivers installed.
I am not sure how can I create a data base file?
for example, with MS Access we would code like this:
private String url = "jdbc:odbc:grade";
private String username = "yung";
private String password = "1234";
Class.forName( "sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver" );
connection = DriverManager.getConnection(
url, username, password );
I created "grade" with MS Access, but how can I do it for Oracle?
Execute "CREATE TABLE" ?
