Yep, I do understand that, but when I give DB to someone, I do not want them
to see the database. I want them to access the database thr' the php
application.

It is very simple, I don't want any one to see my DB in open way. But they
can access it thr' my app.

I agree with about file system, and that will work on Linux but
unfortunately I am working on Windows(98/NT/XP)

any ideas!!!

Thx
Suhas

What is it exactly that you need to achieve?

PHP script doesnt read a MySQL data files, MySQL server does. You can
configure your OS and filesystem rights, so that only MySQL server can
read them.
