Thanks so much for the quick reply. There is so much info out there, it just one gets lost and that is truely my case. So i iwll start creating the database in access then use ODBC for conversion. I think mambo has php/perl something of that sort that i can install for user session.... Will concentrate my research only to this. Thanks again.

I need to create a database that will have contact info of all our 600 clients in the US. All i need to put in this database is their company name, city, state and phone. I can create this database in MS Access with no problem, but our website is running using php open source. I am wondering and i am very confused and have 0 level expertise with mysql database. I need to know how can i create this list using the mysql database? What do i need to know?? And will I be able to connect this database with our website and have users also login their company info from the front end? If using phpmysql is challenging, i can use ms access and then convert it to mysql but again the question is how can i have my website work wit this database and how can i show this info on the front end of the site. I just need some advise, some type of direction. THanks for you response in advance.
