After I read the article "How to call Asscess database and COM program through ADO in PHP", I immediately tested it and the result failed. Sad isn't it.
What to do? I had no choice but to go to the PHP official website for help. God paid off, and finally I found the answer -
The specific solution is as follows:
(1) Enter http://php.weblogs.com/adodb and download the corresponding solution. ZIP package; like MICROSOFT's ADO, this stuff uses PHP to implement ADO to deal with various databases (great, all types of databases can be processed).
(2) Unpack, there are many files in it, but the only useful ones are ohtml.inc.php and adodb.inc.php, copy them to the corresponding directory (or c:php4peer in the default directory for installing php4, Or in the current running program directory, depending on the include() function);
(3) Then in the c:myphp directory of the local machine (one wrong word, it is the machine) (set under iis through http:// localhost/jhk to access), created an access library named test.mdb, and created an experts table in it... In order to access it through DSN, I named the ACCESS library test in the DSN.
(4) Run. After looking at the instructions, I created this program:
dbtest.php, with the following content:
include('tohtml.inc.php'); // load code common to ADODB
include('adodb.inc .php'); // load code common to ADODB
$conn = &ADONewConnection('access'); // create a connection
$conn->PConnect('test');// connect to MySQL , agora db
$sql = 'select name, group1 from experts';
$rs = $conn->Execute($sql);
rs2html($rs,'border=2 cellpadding=3 ',array('Customer Name','Customer ID'));
$rs->Close(); // optional
$conn->Close(); // optional
? >
Then, type in IE: http://localhost/jhk/dbtest.php
Oh! The results are out.
Basically satisfying! !
(5) Then, I thought: I still need to set up DSN, don’t you bother me! How to bypass DSN? Because in asp, I am used to using conn.open("provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & Server.Mappath("../nydatabase.mdb")) to handle the mdb library, which is fast ah!
? ...I thought about it again and again, and looked at it again and again...
Look around,..., hehe, I finally found the answer in testdatabases.inc.php! I adapted the program just now:
include('tohtml.inc.php'); // load code common to ADODB
include('adodb.inc.php'); // load code common to ADODB
$db = &ADONewConnection("ado_access");
print "
