I need to be able to make the user be able to click a button, which then launches a batch file on my computer.. But passthru() doesnt do the job anymore. And is faulty.. My computer is the server, so it'd also be nice if the command could launch it in a windowed form instead of a background process Here's my code:

Using MS Access DB Remotely
My client has an EPOS system, albeit a rubbish one which runs from a ms access database. Currently, they have a report which exports current stock, they save this as a csv file, and they are able to upload to our application which parses the data. I want to make this process a whole lot more automated, so im thinking that if i could set up an odbc connection on the server. I would be able to query that database remotely, using one of the odbc libraries. If this ISNT possible, can you think of another way i might make an access database on a remote windows 2000 server available to a linux webserver? File transfer isnt an option, the database is somewhere in the region of 600 meg.

Locally Works/remotely Breaks? (Oracle Related?)
I'm diving into this crazy PHP thing, and I find myself a bit stuck. Locally I can get a site to work very well. However, whenever I ask a buddy of mine to test the site and I give him my IP it doesn't work. I have a form. The form checks username/password against a database and then either sends you back to the form or forwards you to the next page. Is: header("Location: http://localhost/nextpage.php"); the proper form of redirection? The issue on the not at my computer logins is in this redirect. I'm not sure what I need to send, but I was getting connection errors in the beginning which aren't showing up anymore. Then I was getting unreferenced index errors, but I put all the variables in a session and that seems to work now. And now I'm stumped because I'm not getting errors in the log.

Not Executing (sometimes)
I run a message board site that has been having technical problems lately. Today I upgraded my version of php via an apache build in cpanel (now on php 5.0.x - but that doesn't seem to matter). When I access .php files that don't rely on a database, they run. However, all the .php files that use my MySQL database don't execute and prompt my browser to download. I should mention that I tried to upgrade MySQL today too. I was using 4.0 and upgraded to 4.1.

Executing From A Database
Store content (html and php) in a database, so far this hasn't been an issue. When I called the content from the database its displayed properly with the exception of php commands (specifically include() ). Rather then executing the include statement its printed as HTML in the source code of the document. I found one post on a PHP User Group board but the solutions provided don't seem to really work. I'm almost guessing that this is a security feature and although I'd prefer not to circumvent it, it would greatly help in what I'm trying to accomplish.
