Hi Norm,

I gather that you are wanting to bring both databases together into a single MySQL 
database. In order to do that, you'll have to have the mysql service running on your 
web server. (Not actually true, but true enough for this conversation) However, it 
sounds to me like you don't have the option of installing any software on this server. 
Is that right?

If so, you may want to look consilidating the two databases yourself on a different 
system, like the workstation that you're developing from. Then put all of the data on 
the web server. Of course, you'll still need some way of storing and accessing the 
data from your web site. If the web server has Perl installed and available to you, 
then you're in luck. Actually, you could use any number of CGI programming languages 
if they are installed, but Perl is the one that I can help you with.

Let us know some more about your working enviroment and we'll go from there.
