PHP - MySQL - SQL7 Server - Visual Basic.

2002-02-12 Thread AOK Lansing

Hi, I currently have a very large MS SQL7 database that I need to put on the
web. My plan is to use PHP and MySQL to accomplish this. Currently I have a
Visual Basic front end on the MS SQL7 Server. I would like to have my VB
program write The MS SQL7 server data to a MYSql database and then have PHP
read and display the MySql database on a web page. I am new to PHP and MySql
so some idea's, samples, pro's or con's would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Bob Hiller

Bob,
I've posted this back onto the list because there are others here who will be much 
more able to assist.

 Clarification:
 
 I currently have 22 NT workstation that send data to various tables in a
 SQL7 database running on a NT sever. The visual basic front end organizes
 this data in to a neat fashion and allows the user to graph and print data
 and comparisons from the various tables. The front end also responds to
 e-mail requests for information from the tables. Currently there are only 12
 authorized e-mail accounts so it is easy to manage. We are now going to add
 about 100 workstations, More tables and 200 authorized e-mails accounts.
 With this addition I have decided to eliminate the e-mail accounts and post
 all of this information to a secure web server that I will administer. So
 what I need to do is have a VB program write this data to a MySql database
 that will only allow users to view the data. I have extensive VB experience
 and have created and updated many types of databases using it, however I
 have never used MySql and need some pointers.
 
 Can Vb create and write to MySql databases?

=yes, using an ODBC or ADO interface.

 What syntax do I use in PHP to read the MySql database?

=PHP has a wide range of interface functions 'built-in'.

=Why use two RDBMS'? PHP can access MS-SQL to provide the web service.

2002-02-05 Thread Sommai Fongnamthip

Hi bob,
 I have do everything you need but may be a little diff.  I have MS 
SQL 6.5 on NT, MySQL 3.23.47 on Linux and using PHP / VB 6 for client.  The 
first thing you must define some role of usage and other, how to manipulate 
your data.  I have PHP update routing in some project (transfer via ftp 
function, read along text file and then update data to MySQL).  If you need 
to access to MS SQL via PHP try to use FreeTDS on Linux (may be they have 
copy on NT).  All you need about MySQL are on the Web.
 If you need to access MySQL via VB: try to use MyVBQL at 
www.icarz.com/mysql/.  MyVBQL using libmysql.dll to access MySQL and let 
you used recordset style in your application.

Sommai,
