I'm brand new to formtools and am starting a new project for a client. I have a basic question about how to get Form Tools to interface with a SQL Server database where our data is currently located. We will have forms to interact with the data in an Access database. So how do we interface the two in a database app? Is there an ODBC driver to do so?

Hi @dkbritz,

Ah, I'm afraid Form Tools is only designed to work with a MySQL database, nothing else. It does use PDO as an layer between with the actual database interaction, but the SQL itself still has to be written to target a particular DB - and in our case that's MySQL.

Sorry I couldn't be more help!

Ben
