Before this I have developed 1 system using ASP intergrated with VB component. The component is used to put all the sqlquery to get the data from the database. So can we use the same way, PHP with VB Component? Or maybe other alternative except write down all the sqlquey in the same php page?

php has its own function for accessing databases. Maybe you should look more into that, because i highly doubt that you'll be able to incorporate your VB component with PHP.

Actually right now I also used PHP function for accessing databases. The reason to use with VB component just to protect from reverse engineering (perhaps can). Just want to know if somebody got any idea about this..

unless your security sucks, no one but you will be able to see/read the php code itself.. since php is a server language, not a client language.

For powerful database-wrappers, have a look at PEAR::DB or adoDB.
PHP is very different from ASP in that the sense of sharing was imbued into PHP from the very beginning. No need to be worried about reverse-engineering or the like, there are many, many, many fantastic and very useful pieces of PHP-code out there, you can view/adapt/manipulate the source-code as you like.
