Accessing tables from remote machine

Question

I using the following code, to update the record from the emp table. This table is created locally in my machine.
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
Connection conn;
String db = "jdbc:odbc:NewDsn";
String username = "test";
String password = "test";
String tableName = "emp";
conn = DriverManager.getConnection(db, username, password);
Statement stmt1 = conn.createStatement();
String update = "update " + tableName +
" set salary=salary+1000 where empid>200";
stmt1.executeUpdate(update);
I want my application to run on two different machine and the update should be made on a single table.
Please help me, how the user from other machine can access this emp table created in my local machine?

I completely agree with RPriya.
jschell, If you think that it is not correct, could you please put some focus on your statementYou mean you want me to explain how database connections work in general and how jdbc drivers would use them?
Do you know how a socket works? Do you know that it requires a client and a server?
How does a socket work if there is no server?
How do database connections work in C, C++, Perl, Ruby, Python, VB, etc, when absolutely none of those use a java type 4 driver?
Do you know how the oracle oci driver work? It is not a type 4 driver.
Do you know how the jdbc-odbc bridge works with oracle? With MS SQL Server? The jdbc-odbc bridge is not a type 4 driver.
