Using the database on the web
 
I want to post my eq database on my website.

It seems zmud's database is some sort of proprietary bindary file.

Is there any way to mount this database with sql or odbc?

If not - is there any way to send my data to excel, msaccess, or even text instead of this zmud database?

This is really frustrating!

I would suggest looking into CMud. Right now the database is the same as zMud, but future versions promise to have an SQLite based backend for the database module. This should be much better for web based applications. Also there is only a short period of time left when zMud purchases will be honored to upgrade into CMud purchases; so it may be worth your time to take a look and see how CMud has developed into the next generation of mud client.

Cmud, as you even mentioned in your post, does not provide a solution. I have cmud, but so far I have been unimpressed with it. Perhaps if cmud would provide a database solution, it would be worth switching over.

When is Cmud's Database going to be redesigned so it will be possible to use Access/SQL/and or ODBC ?
