I'd recommend reading the PHP manual at: http://www.php.net/docs.php There you will find chapters on using various database functions, such as: MySQL http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.mysql.php PostgreSQL http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.pgsql.php Microsoft SQL Server http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.mssql.php Oracle http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.oracle.php David -- David Grant http://www.grant.org.uk/
