I'm new to PHP and I'm trying to convert some of my ASP pages to see how it
works. So far I can't find a clear answer to this:
What do I have to do to query FoxPro tables?
Do I have to use DSN? (I currently don't)
Should I use ODBC or OLEdb?
Do I use COM/ADO?
Which connection string?
The examples I've found so far aren't very helpful (and sometimes contradict)
and tend to use Access, MSSQL, or MySQL for examples not VFP.
You could do any of the above. But ODBC will be the simplest.
The DSN is a specific configuration of the ODBC layer (defines whatr
database it connects to) and once configured you can test the
connection using Access/Excel/Whatever.
