    Wink PHP and MS Access

    Greetings To You All....

    I have been tasked to develop a database for a registration we are having for an upcoming conference. There are many options I have for creating the database and thought I could use PHP and use MS Access as the backend.

    My question is... is it possible to use MS Access or do you need to use MySQL?

    I have already built the tables using Access and I am not too fond of ASP so I would like to stay with PHP but from what I have found on the web so far, I am unsure if this is possible.

    Does someone know if it is possible to use a MS Access database with PHP?

    Thanks!
