Hi Mark An alternative solution for connecting to MS Access is odbtp. Details are available at http://odbtp.sourceforge.net. It provides better support for ODBC, especially in regards to MS Access. Take a look at the storedqry.php example at http://odbtp.sourceforge.net/examples.html. It shows how to execute a MS Access stored query. The odbtp extension has a higher performance, and it allows you to remotely connect to your Access database from any platform. -- bob On Thu, 11 Mar 2004, Galbreath, Mark A wrote: > Yes, I'm a newbie to PHP, but I got a phpBB2 BBS online in a day and I'm > psyched. > > My problem is, the PHP docs and API mention that ODBC is built into PHP 4.x > but I can't figure out how to use it.
