How do you convert MySQL into Access

Hi I have a copy of a php database and need to convert it into access so i cam merge the infomation.

1. Do I need a php server(stupid question I think)

2. I have seen tools that you can buy, again do U need a php server for this and does that software need to be installed on the server.

I have IIS to work with at this stage can it be done or what should I do.

Thanks
Trent

RE: How do you convert MySQL into Access

You say you have a copy of a PHP database...I believe you mean MySQL database....how do you have this copy? Is it in a .SQL file? Or what?

The easiest way to move from MySQL to Access is to dump your MySQL to a comma delimited file and then import it into access....

RE: How do you convert MySQL into Access

It's been given to me in a zip file and has just a .BAK so i'm not sure I know it was used with php so I'm assuming it's MySQL

Is there any way I can tell as I don't have contact with the original owner...as luck has it!!!

But I like the comma seperated idea.

RE: How do you convert MySQL into Access

Well....you could have a MySQL data file there...or you could already have a dump file...look at it with a text editor and see if it is plain text or binary data....if it is plain text, show me an example of what it looks like....

RE: How do you convert MySQL into Access

Sounds like it is a mysql data file....you will need access to an existing mysql installation...or install it on your pc....
