This is output from a mysql export function. Problem is I don’t know the best way to put this into Access. From there I can write PHP to parse it.

    This is a bit rough, but you can save a file as a CSV file and then import it into Excel, copy it over to your clipboard and paste it into Access:

    /**
 * save array as CSV file, first line will be keys as
 * field specifier
 *
 * @param array $data
 * @param string $filename
 */
function array_csv_save(array $data, $filename) {
    $handle = fopen($filename, 'w');
    $names = array_keys($data[0]);
    fputcsv($handle, $names);
    foreach($data as $fields) {
        fputcsv($handle, $fields);
    }
    fclose($handle);
}

$data = $jos_banner;
$columns = array_keys($data[0]);
array_unshift($data, $columns);
array_csv_save($data, $filename);

    Specify $filename to save your data.

    The other alternative is to open a (odbc?) based database connection to your Access database and insert your values. But I’m not fluent with that, so can’t provide any useful code.
