RE: [PHP-DB] autoupload

A little more detail Install MyODBC - you will need it on all machines In Access File -> Get external data -> Link tables ->ODBC data sources -> MyODBC data source You now have a direct link from Access to MySql and can run an Access query to load the data straight into MySql. I did this a while ago and can't remember more detail, but I hope this will point you in the right direction.

Any ideas on how this can be accomplished? You'd have to write a little vB or C program to do it, unless you're going to install PHP on every computer. ---John Holmes... -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
