Hi,
I have reached the end of my web application development for my website....
Although now, theres a catch, I need to migrate ALL the data from MySQL to MS SQL Server as well as adjust my php scripts to access the MS SQL Server database.
I found out how to make the connection to MS SQL Server using php, but what I'd like to know is...
How much of a difference is there between the functions for MySQL and MS SQL Server...
Eg. to connect to the MS SQL Server, instead of mysql_connect($host, $username, $password);
i would now use :
mssql_connect($host, $username, $password)
among a few other familiar functions.
A more specific eg would be...inserting data into tables, truncate the tables, importing flat files(comma delimted CSV files) into the database tables
using php code.
ANY Help would be great!!!!
I hope i've explained properly.
Much Thanks
Ciao

Thanks James...was of great help.
But other that the function changes, would my SQL querying still be the same or would i need to change that aswell?
Eg. when i update my database i do the following
| Code: |
$uSql = "UPDATE $toTable, $fromTable SET $toTable.$fieldToUpdate = $fromTable.$tData ".
"WHERE $toTable.row_position = $rowIndex[$sData] AND $fromTable.row_indx = $rowIndex[2]";
$uResult = mysql_query($uSql)
or die ("<br>Update Error : ".mysql_error());
|
The above was when I was using the mysql functions.
Will i now have to change the structure etc. for doing the update, etc.
Thanks
