    Microsoft Access is a popular database manager application for Windows. Despite it is not very suitable for Web database applications that may be updated by many simultaneous users, there is always people willing to use their Microsoft Access database files (.mdb) on the Web.

    One of the difficulties of using .mdb files from PHP is that when you use the ODBC API to access the databases, usually you need to setup a Data Source Name (DSN) in the Windows system that works as a server.

    This class provides an alternative solution that takes only the path of the .mdb file to access it using Microsoft COM objects.

    The class automatically constructs a suitable DSN to instantiate a COM object that can be used to execute and retrieve the result sets of SQL queries that can be run on Microsoft Access databases.

  • Detailed description:

  • This class is meant to access Microsoft Access .mdb database files by specifying their filenames.

    It uses a Windows ADODB COM object to open the .mdb database. From then on you can execute SQL queries and retrieve the result set date like with any SQL based database.
