title: Best way to access database on server using Android Application
body: <p>I need to develop an application which can access an SQL Server database stored on a server in an office. On call staff remote desktop into a terminal server, and access the database using the desktop application for which the Database was made. The desktop application accesses the database with an ODBC connection. 
  I am writing an android application which will allow a small part of the access to this database that is available in the desktop application, and I am looking for ways to connect my application to this database, whether it is using the ODBC connection (Potentially using .Net), or in some other way.</p>
