Re: Best way to duplicate tables to another DB using PHP

mysqldump would work pretty well if the source DB is mysql, but it's a DB I have to access via ODBC on a windows box instead. And this particular DB doesn't seem to have a command line interface to export a table that I can call from PHP.

What do you suggest is the best (fastest, most efficient) way to duplicate a table from one database to another using PHP? I have a windows machine setup with ODBC for this old school DB (Pervasive SQL 7) and I would like to duplicate some of the tables into a Linux box with MySQL for some datawarehousing purposes. The largest table is about 30K records. I'm not sure if something like a "select *" and then doing a foreach record insert into MySQL would be the best way. Thanks for any suggestions.
