ODBC/Access DB System Data Source

This may be a silly question - but -

is there a way, on a Reseller-hosted account - to create a ODBC System Data Source - so that I can have my PHP script edit/modify an Access MDB data file that I upload to the web server?

I haven't seen any method of using Access databases on linux before. There may be some solution out there, but it would most likely be commercial.

Your best bet would be to move to a mysql database instead
