    The following steps will help you to conenct to a MS Access Database
    from your ASP.NET web form.

    Step 1 :
    Create an Asp.Net Web Application
    a)File->New->Project
    select ASP.NET Web Application
    Click Ok
    Step 2:
    In the Design View of the form , from the WebForms ToolBox
    Drag and Drop a Button
    Drag and Drop a DataGrid

    Step 3
    From the Data ToolBox,
    Drag and Drop a OleDBDataAdapter
    Now the Data Adapter Configuration Wizard Will Appear
    Click ON Next
    Click On New Connection
    In the Data Link Properties Form , Click On Provider
    Choose Microsoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB Provider(Or 3.51 OLE DB Provider, depending on MSAccess installed on your machine)
    Click On Next
    In the resulting window, Enter the complete path to your Local
    Access DataBase (For ex:C:\SampleDB\BooksDb.mdb).
    You can also browse the .mdb file using the Button next to the Text Box.
    Click on Test Connection to make sure that the DB exists and that you are able to connect to the Database.

    Dont forget to enter the password information if you are using a password for your database.
    Click on Ok.
    Step 4
    Click on Next in the Data Adapter Configuration Wizard
    Make sure the "Use Sql Statements" Radio Button is Checked and Click Next
    Enter the SQL query in the Resulting window (For ex: Select * from Books)
    (Or You can use the Query Builder to build your queries)
    Click Next
    Click Finish
    Now you are all set to retreive the data from the DataBase you specified.
    Step 5
    Now In the Button Click Event, include the following Statements
    Code:
    DataSet dataset=new DataSet();
    this.oleDbDataAdapter1.Fill(dataset);
    this.DataGrid1.DataSource=dataset;
    DataGrid1.DataBind();
    Compile and run your program. If you click the Button, you can see the Datagrid is being populated by the data from the DataBase.

    I see from this page ms recommends using SOAP as an alternative for remote db access.
