I am working on my thesis from home, work, and the university. Now I could carry around a USB stick, but I would a) lose it, b) forget to take it, or most probably c) both. So I thought there must be something that lets you store stuff on line, and I found Google Docs, which I thought was exactly what I needed, but that turns out not to want to store my .mdb files, like my book list and my lists of difficult French words, which I do need.
Anyone know of a Google Docs type place which lets you store .doc and .mdb files?

Looked good but the blooming thing is only available to Merkins.:mad:

Edit: Cool! One of the links in your google link was for Yahoo Documents, and that seems to work. Thanks Varaj.:)

Which is called Yahoo Briefcase. Put here because I just spent about half an hour looking for my bloody database, only to find out I cannot open it at work.:mad:

All I've uploaded are PDFs, but the FAQ makes it sound like anything goes.

remote access your computer? if nothing else works? I'm an IT idiot, so I don't even know if it is helpful, just occured to me is all.

If you have your own webspace (most ISP give you one for free) you can always host your own stuff on it...

If Googledocs allow zip files you can zip your mdb's and store them or maybe a simple renaming of the file may help as well.
