Hi,

Potentially/technically, there is nothing in the technology itself to stop
you from connecting to a database residing on an open IP on the Internet.
However, before publishing your VB Application, you might want to make sure
of the connection methodology between Internet and the place where your app
might run. You can run into connectivity issues with firewalls in between,
especially when you consider that the connectivity over firewalls is often
restricted to port 80 and some allowed protocols. Of course your local
conditions might vary.

Regards,

Rinoo Rajesh
