I am developing a web application using Visual Studio 2005 to build the web interface and SQL Server 2005 to build the database. I need to be able to access the database queries via the web interface. What I want is that after accessing the website (via its address, say, www.ok.com), you can follow a link from that website (homepage) to the database. i.e Is it possible to have a button or hyperlink such that when you click it, you can be taken to the database. I can build the website and I have finished building the datasbase (queries). What I need is a way of connecting to the database from the web interface. I will be accessing the web and database across the internet. Please also suggest any useful web links if they are any.
