Hi,

I'm looking to transfer some database information from a program (written in dbase, and one written using MS Access) to an internet service which will populate that data into a number of mySQL tables using php.

Are there any models that I could follow for either program (similarities)?

The only idea I can seem to come up with is for these two programs to write a http header and send the information to my url like that; is that possible with these two implementations?

Thanks in advance

With mySQL you can import data from a number of sources. if you have access to the shell, you can use the mySQL Administrator program to directly import an Excel file (for example).
