Advice needed

Post by phpDVWeaver »

I do have about 400 records in an excel file that I want to transfer to a MySql database. I was adiviced to save the file as csv and then import it with phpMyAdmin.
I already have php installed in computer, am just wondering if installing phpMyAdmin will affect the original installed php.

Please let me know.

I would use a pre-bundles WAMP environment like Uniform Server - it comes with everything you need off the bat and runs from a folder (no install required) - just make sure you don't have another service conflicting on port 80 when you start it.

phpMyAdmin is a PHP application. It will not affect your installation, but it won't do you much good without MySQL.
