Hi,
I've developed several coldfusion pages so far using Access. However because of size limitations I have decided to migrate to MYSQL.
I am a little confused about how everything works now. When I write SQL in the coldfusion webpages to search the access database, is Access actually doing anything? Or is the query actually being run by Coldfusion? Finally if and when I link Coldfusion to a mySQL database, do I have to be running mysql server in the background so that the queries can be executed?
Sorry if my questions are a little confusing, any comments would be appreciated.
I am basically trying to convert multiple access databases each with 300,000 records into one HUGE 1,000,000+ record database.
If I ever do get MYSQL to work, how do I get the database to register with the cold fusion ODBC data source...
Thanks in advance!
