Thanks John! Say, are there any arguments not to use MS-SQL? Did you run into any problems? Thanks, Axel -----Original Message----- From: Negretti, John (CCI-San Diego) [mailto:John.Negretti@cox.com] Sent: Friday, October 25, 2002 3:14 PM To: Axel; php-db@lists.php.net Subject: RE: PHP and MS-SQL Axel, Well, I'm not sure what everyone will tell you, but this is what I did. I used "MyODBC" (on windows) to connect to SQL Server using the built-in "odbc_***()" PHP functions. There is also the matter of changing your SQL Statements to be compatible with SQL Server. MySQL and SQL Server have quite a few differences with SQL Statements. As far as the rest of your code, it should not matter if it's on UNIX or Windows.
