Calling an Access form or message from a .net application

I would like to open an "announcement" form on a receptionist PC when a client arrives. We use a Windows Mobile 2003 PDA with a VB.net "smart application"t o check the client in when they arrive at our service facility. The PDA form accesses a SQL db an
d updates their vehicles data. The client then goes into the reception area. How could we have a message display on the receptionist's PC based upon the arrival event in SQL.

The receptionist has Access 2000. Could we use this, or is their a way to have the PDA "call" a form on another (the receptionist's) PC?
