Re: [PHP-DB] ODBC support

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.

 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.  I would like to access the M$ Access
 JET engine directly from a PHP page.  Any clues?

   ODBC function reference is present at 
http://pt.php.net/manual/en/ref.odbc.php (you can choose a closer mirror 
if you want). Scroll down to the bottom of the page to look at the 
functions list and some immediate examples. Re-post if you need further 
information.

Take a look at ADODB (It's a good database library that supports a
variety of systems):

Here's a quick intro:
