I have a webpage/site that i need to write for work... I need to query and cross reference information on an access 03 dbase with info from an excel 03 sheet. I am limited to using asp/php as the webserver is pretty old.
I was advised to use vbs for getting the information from an .xls file....
just wondering if anyone has advice on what I should use and/or link to where to get info?
That shows you the various ways to connect to an Access DB. And if you just scroll down a little ways you'll see the part titled "You can also open an Excel Spreadsheet using the JET OLE DB Provider".
Finally, you can actually reference Excel data *INSIDE* a query of an Access DB. But let's not get into that unless you need it.
