RE: [PHP-WIN] Opinions about php4 and MS Access

In fact, it has worked beautifully for small projects and even some relatively larger ones... I don't know how it would handle multiple connections for input though... --------------------- Founder of The 'What Kind of Idiot Uses PHP with IIS with Oracle on NT?'
