Linking to SQL Server 2008, no web server.

Hi All,
My back ground is with Excel, Access, VBA and SQL Server (to an extent) and I have "just enough" knowledge of HTML and JavaScript, etc to be able to put a basic website together.
I'm trying to create a webpage that to replace a horrible Access Front End I've had to build and would like to use DataTables.
In short I can set up a stored procedure on SQL Server that can provide the data as required (i.e. sorted/filtered/restricted to the current number of rows to view/etc), however, I cannot for the life of me figure out if it's possible to link this in with DataTables without using a webserver to handle asp/php/etc.
Is this possible? If so can someone help point me in the right direction?
FYI - the "webpage" will be stored locally on a small number of people's machines, all using IE7 or IE8. I know I could just continue to use MS Office, however I want to get my teeth into JavaScript and HTML a little more and be able to offer the users a much more pleasant experience in the process.
