Re: Real time database access from Web

Just a general warning to all readers of this spam: If you use ActiveX technology over the Internet you open up a significant security hole (even with code signed ActiveX controls). Using ActiveX on an intranet may however be very attractive and usefull. Using Java to accomplish the same thing is a much better alternative for general internet usage.
