So, I've got a MS Access databse with 1 table in it with rows of information on brochures. I'm setting up a public computer, and I need to have some sort of interface so people can search by keyword and pull up the rows that have the word in it.
How can I make this sort of interface? I don't know anything about Access, so the only think I've thought of so far was to export it as a Word file then have people use the 'Find' function in Word, but that's really really sloppy. If I could export the Access database into an SQL dump I'd be able to program an interface in PHP, but I don't know how to export it that way.
Anyone!?
