premiso Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 They are two completely different items. You need to explain a bit clearer and better what you are wanting to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandareen Posted January 26, 2012 Author Share Posted January 26, 2012 Well i give you a simple example...let's just say that i want to make a login form ( username and password ), and for this i use phpmyadmin to store may Login database....But i've realised that Microsoft SQL Server is more user friendly, and also u can make databases. So my question is that if i can use SQL Server instead of phpMyAdmin to store my databases? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 phpMyAdmin is an interface to the MySql server. MS SQL is a database server. Two completely different things. If your question is "Can php connect to a MS SQL server?" the answer is yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kicken Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Download and install the SQL Srv driver for PHP from microsoft. I recommend using the PDO interface for the actual DB work in PHP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
