do you need the script to process/change/extend the data?
Otherwise you might be interested in http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/INSERT_SELECT.html

oops, than obviously I deleted the wrong post :oops: http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.mysql.php has some examples
http://www.phpcomplete.com/tutorials.ph ... adTutorial is a tutorial for creating a login-system based on mysql but also covers some of the basics.

Sorry, but you really need to start with a tutorial - lots of them cover exactly what you want to do. If you would like to hire someone to write code for you then you can always post in the Job Hunt forum.
