Also the company does not have a network server. What it has,
though, is an FTP site. Will that suffice as a central point to keep our
data?
You can send files to the FTP site..but not connect ms-access to a ftp site
(it don't work that way).
However, since the company has a FTP site..then presumably they have server
space. And, even when you rent, or purchase FTP space, 90% or more do also
provide some type of sql server (database) system and space also. So, you
might check what they offer.
And, if what you have now works..then I would not worry much. As mentioned,
moving to sql server would result in some additional administration and work
to maintain that database server. So, I would only justify the EXTRA time
and effort to maintain the database if you were realize some type of gain by
moving to sql server.
All in all, it seems your main worry was about JET and ms-access, and there
is not much to worry on that area...
