PHP - MS-Access

I have copied this tutorial code (part of a .php script);

function Enter_New_Entry($FirstName,$LastName,$PhoneNumber) {

/*
    First, we create a connection to our ODBC source. This is done by creating
    a connection. Once this is done, we are returned an ODBC connection number.
    We use this number to use the ODBC functions within PHP.
*/

$cnx = odbc_connect( 'PHPTest' , 'root', '' );
if (!$cnx) {
    Error_handler( "Error in odbc_connect" , $cnx );
}

$SQL_Exec_String = "Insert Into people (FirstName, LastName, PhoneNumber)
Values ('$FirstName', '$LastName','$PhoneNumber')";

$cur= odbc_exec( $cnx, $SQL_Exec_String );
if (!$cur) {
    Error_handler( "Error in odbc_exec( no cursor returned ) " , $cnx );

}

but encounter the following errors;

Notice: Undefined variable: FirstName in D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\phpaccess\DataAccess.php on line 96

Notice: Undefined variable: LastName in D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\phpaccess\DataAccess.php on line 96

Notice: Undefined variable: PhoneNumber in D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\phpaccess\DataAccess.php on line 96

Warning: odbc_exec(): SQL error: [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Data type mismatch in criteria expression., SQL state 22005 in SQLExecDirect in D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\phpaccess\DataAccess.php on line 81
Error in odbc_exec( no cursor returned )

The database table called people has an autonember field called Index preceding the other data field.

Any help gratefully received.

where do you call the function?

Thanks for your interest, the complete code listing (except the php file that passes the values);

(Note the file works up to the point where the record is added to the database)

<?php

function HTML_Head() {
echo "
<HTML><HEAD>
<TITLE>Processing Form</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY BGCOLOR=\"#D5D5AB\">";
}

function HTML_Foot() {
echo "</body></html>";
}

function Database_Entries($msg) {
echo $msg;
}

function Output_Entries() {
/
Make the connection to the database. The syntax is
odbc_connect( 'SYSTEM_DSN' , 'USER', 'PASSWORD' );
$cnx will hold the
pconnect is used to establish a persistent database
connection to the Database until the procedure is completed.
/

$cnx = odbc_connect( 'PHPTest' , 'root', '' );
if (!$cnx) {
    Error_handler( "Error in odbc_connect" , $cnx );
}

// send a simple odbc query . returns an odbc cursor
$cur= odbc_exec( $cnx, "select index,FirstName,LastName,PhoneNumber from people" );
if (!$cur) {
    Error_handler( "Error in odbc_exec( no cursor returned ) " , $cnx );
}
echo "<table border=1><tr><th>Index</th><th>First Name</th>".
    "<th>Last Name</th><th>Phone Number</th></tr>\n";
$nbrow=0;   //Local variable to count number of rows

// fetch the succesive result rows
while( odbc_fetch_row( $cur ) ) {
    $nbrow++;
    $Index= odbc_result( $cur, 1 ); // get the field "index"
    $FirstName= odbc_result( $cur, 2 ); // get the field "FirstName"
    $LastName= odbc_result( $cur, 3 ); // get the field "LastName"
    $PhoneNumber= odbc_result( $cur, 4 ); // get the field "PhoneNumber"

    echo "<tr><td>$Index</td><td>$FirstName</td>".
        "<td>$LastName</td><td>$PhoneNumber</td></tr>\n";
}

echo "<tr><td colspan=2>$nbrow entries </td></tr></table>";

// close the connection. important if persistent connection are "On"
odbc_close( $cnx);

}

function Error_Handler( $msg, $cnx ) {
echo "$msg \n";
odbc_close( $cnx);
exit();
}
