Pear does not directly support Access -- but it supports ODBC and
that'll work, otherwise you could use the PHP ODBC functions.
www.php.net/odbc
http://pear.php.net/package/DB
Avoid the Microsoft SQL Server functions like the damned plague if you
are using Windows for you webserver. They entirely suck -- I wrote my
own wrapepr for that includes OCI8 MySQL and ODBC seems to work great
with SQL Server.
