Guys,

I don't believe that there is any question today that IIS5 on win2K
is the best webserver $$$ can buy.

Sincerely

Tom,
Thanks.  I believe myaccess2000_1_4 is one of the ones I've tried.  I'll try
again to make sure I didn't miss anything. I used dbtools to do the dBase
conversion.


Agree that the older versions of IIS were crap, but newer one (version 3 and
4) seems to be pretty good.

Dan

> 1) I think that people use Apache as old versions of IIS were crap. In
addition, it is about the widest used server out there in the commercial
world (Linux running Apache with PHP3 is I believe the most common config at
the moment) so if you're developing something to put on such a site, it's
more likely to work if you develop with something close to that setup (note
probs with case sensititivity and so on on with Apache that won't necesarily
be exposed on IIS)

myaccess2000_1_4.zip, this is an Access plug-in that someone has kindly
written to convert data and structure from Access 2000 MDB to MySQL (I've
not tried them, but I think it also allows dbase conversion and a few
others).

dBase tables converted to MySQL and ODBC connected to Access 2000, on an NT
4 box with IIS 4 and it runs very well.  Performance is great.  My only
problem is automating the conversion to update tables in MySQL.  I would
like like to convert the Access 2000 tables also but the converters either
don't seem to work with Access 2k, or not much at all, or are not such that
a timed batch file can be generated using them.  I just looked at what I've
written and it's a little jumbled.  Mega-Sigh.  Let me summarize.

to keep MySQL data up to date?  The data needs to be updated several times a
week.  No I can't just switch everything over and not have to convert again.

because the data only gets updated every couple months.
