Local Mysql Info

[Greg Barnett]

Hi,

I use php & mysql on a regular basis and im wondering how to go along
pulling information from the mysql database and populating a local access
database with the info?

Is it anything to do with ODBC?

any help (even the smallest of suggestions) would be great!

Exactly. You need to install a MySQL ODBC driver on your system.
Then Access, Excel and any other ODBC compliant product can extract
data from your MySQL database.

No idea as to where to download such but I'm sure the official MySQL
website would have that info.
