Burhan 02-22-2004, 12:23 PM Welcome to WHT :) From MS Access you can export to CSV and then import into any database. There are also MS Access readers available for Linux (but I doubt any hosting company will let you run that on their servers). You can have an ASP site hosted on Linux, but it requires a special extension that is not free, so unless your site is very large, or you are willing to pay for the extension, not many hosts will be accomodating. tbnguyen 02-24-2004, 11:48 AM Like fyrestrtr has said, it is possible with some extra works. I would suggest that you keep it simple and host those type of framework applications on a Windows hosted system, if you are OK with Windows Hosting providers. If not, then it would be wise just to import your data into a MySQL database, code the framework in PHP and house it on a Linux hosting server.
