[UPHPU] MS Access

[Brady Mitchell]

I once had to do a project using MS Access as the backend with PHP as the
scripting language.  That's when I found and started to use ADODB
(http://adodb.sf.net) - the best part about it is the portability.  Once you
write the script if you need to use it with another DMBS, just change one
line of code and you're ready to go. 

If I understand correctly, you are looking to move the data to another
DMBS... What I would probably do is write a script that would create insert
statements that could just be copied and pasted into phpMyAdmin or whatever
you use to run SQL queries by hand.
