I would like to know how I can make a php script that copies over all data from a specifiek ODBC database or table in a database to a mysql database or table.
I know how to make a connection to an odbc source with the php function odbc_connect and a mysql source with mysql_connect, but what kind of query can I use to copy everything over?
Is it anyhow possible to do this with one simple query or do I need to use arrays?
Thanks in advance...

You could use an sql select query with the ODBC connection, retrieve all the data from that table, then process it row by row and insert it into the MySQL table. That would be my first idea on how to do this.
Of course, the two tables would need to have the same structure otherwise you could run into problems.
