Dear People,
I need help, first of all my introduction:
I have done a number of simple VB (6.0) programs, including “socks”.
Lately I got interested in HTML “based” databases.
Naturally I took ASP as my language, and MS Access as my database.
While working with my interest (learning while programming actually), I meet trouble. I do not know how to upload files from the client browsers, later I was advised PHP would help me solve this problem easily. Thus, I tried to pick up PHP, well OK, I think I can migrate with a little bit of sweat.
At this point, I also call a local “server space provider”, he mentioned I need to do MySQL else he will charge me MORE money (is it normal?), OK I again got to migrate from MS Access, I am willing.
I downloaded PHP and MySQL and have installed them into my PC, but the problem is, I can’t create a table to get to work. In Access, I will simply create the table using office and use DSN, to get connected and work.
I need two helps (1) Are my migrations wise knowing my situation, (2) Please guide me on any settings I have to do the MySQL application or Dreamweaver application, and guide me to create a table (I understand SQL, problem, I can’t inch forward that is all). I have my IIS turned on, and I do not have Apache.
I have spent 7 hours on this MySQL thing getting no where!
Thanks.
