Joseph,

That is what I use to access my MSSQL databases from a W2K machine here at work.
I do know that I have the MSSQL client install on my developing machine and MYODBC.
This is my in my include file:
------------
$hostname = "10.5.0.200,1433";
$username = "user";
$password = "pwd";
$dbName   = "dbname";

if($conn = mssql_connect($hostname,$username,$password))
{
}
else
{
  die("DATABASE FAILED TO RESPOND.");
}
----------------

Someone mentioned that if you are on a Linux machine you use the ':".  

The application that I have written (PHP/MSSQL) allows students, parents and teachers to access student
scholastic information vi the internet.

:-)
