You need to know the address of the SQL Server, u need a Username and Password to the server, and you need the name of a Database.

<?php
mysql_connect("address","username","password"); 
mysql_select_db("database"); 
?>

But you said that your company policy dose not allow you to connect to the SQL server, well you need to be able to connect in order for you to get any data.

is my question not so clearly.

this i noe, that connect to MySQL database.
but currently is, i had connect to MySQL database, in other time i aslo want get data from MS SQL server. But problem is i jz can get procedure from the administator and cant direct refer to the table and get data.

because of keeping history record, s previous developer had get data from MS SQL server and insert into MySQl database. But this cause the application run very slow. Beside created index for the database, any other solution?

isnt a good way that i insert only data that want keep for history data into MySQL database and get other data that not need for history purpose from MS SQL server?

isnt will have better performance compare with insert all data that need for the application every time and the application only get data from MySQL Database?
