PHP has support for MS-SQL (I assume that is what you mean by SQl), manual has 
examples on use. To connect to Access you would probably have to use ODBC.

Anyway if the examples in the manual aren't enough for you, search google for 
plenty of tutorials.

You might want to look at some of the free abstraction layers out there
like ADODB (http://php.weblogs.com/ADODB).

http://www.devshed.com/Server_Side/PHP/ has a couple nice articles on
using ADODB.

Good luck.
