New to PHP, need help... (Someone that knows ASP)

[Demeno]

I've been using ASP for a while now, but decided to move to PHP since I've recently joined a small company that works only with PHP.
I know C and JS pretty good so it was really easy moving to PHP...

What I'm having trouble with is the DataBases, I need someone to kinda translate this from ASP to PHP, and then I'm sure I'll understand how it works...

<%@Language="VBScript"%>
<%

sq="selectfrom Portfolio"
path=server.mappath("data.mdb")
set c=server.createobject("ADODB.connection")
c.open "driver={Microsoft Access Driver (.mdb)};DBQ=" & path
set r=c.execute(sq)

for t=0 to request.querystring("Number")-1
r.movenext
next

response.write "var0="&r.fields("FileName")&"&var1="&r.fields("Year")&"&var2='"&r.fields("Description")&"'"
%>

Thanks...
