Accessing database offline

Hi
I need to produce a website that looks at an Access database - but it will be distributed on a CD to users who cannot browse the Internet. Basically this will be an offline shopping cart - but instead of placing the order online it will sent as an email attachment.
Can anyone advise if this is possible - without any simulated SQL servers, etc - or is there a simple way. From what I have read I imagine this might be quite difficult, but if anyone can offer some advice or pointers to a relative newbie on this area it would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Mat

the simplest way I know of is to do it in asp as if it were online and use ActiveSite Compiler from Intorel as a wrapper.

All of your asp code will be embedded in the exe it creates and the database is distributed simply as a database on the same cd.

The other way I can think of is to do it in HTML and use Macromedia Flash to create the interface.
