A mdb file is Access based, an mdf file is the data file of SQL Server. They are not convertible. You will have to import the data from access or export / upsize from access to make them stored on the server.

There are two easy solutions:
1) Attach you .mdf file to your database with the hosting company.
2) Make a backup for your database (e.g. on the local machine) and restore it in your database with the hosting company.
Good luck.

Good luck.
There are two more solutions but some time it does not work due to security issues from the hosting company.
1) Use SSIS (SQL Server Integration Services) a wizard that will copy your data and objects from local machine to the hosting server.
2) Use Database Copy Wizard.
Good luck.
