yep, I am trying to come up with a way to get data out of an access db on
the users machine and load it into the mysql db on the server.  The only
thing I can think of is have the user upload their db, php then creates a
datasource, pumps over the data, deletes the db and datasource.  My only
problem with this method is if the db is large it may take them a while to
upload it.  Any other suggestions are greatly welcomed.  I want it to be a
'one click' for the users so I don't want to ask them to export it to
another format before uploading.

Thanks,
Eddie

Are you wanting to have PHP dynamically create ODBC datasources instead
of creating them via the typical Control Panel method?

If so, and if possible, would be tricky, but I'll bet it can be done.
