I have a little issue with importing data from .csv file to "ms access" database.
<form action="index.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="csv"/>
<input type="submit" name="submit"/>
</form>
<?php
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
$i=0;
require "connection.php";
if (is_uploaded_file($_FILES['csv']['tmp_name'])) {
echo "<h3>" . "File ". $_FILES['csv']['name'] ." uploaded successfully." . "</h3>";
}
//Import uploaded file to Database
$handle = fopen($_FILES['csv']['tmp_name'], "r");
$import=$db->prepare("INSERT INTO adherence(
dateandtime,
lastname,
paidtime,
approvedtime,
notadhering) VALUES(
?,?,?,?,?)");
while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, "\t", "'")) !== FALSE) {
if($i>0) {
$data = str_replace('"', '', $data);
$myDate = date("Y/m/d",strtotime(str_replace('/','-',$data[0])));
$import->bindParam(1, $myDate, PDO::PARAM_STR);
$import->bindParam(2, $data[1], PDO::PARAM_STR);
$import->bindParam(3, $data[2], PDO::PARAM_STR);
$import->bindParam(4, $data[3], PDO::PARAM_STR);
$import->bindParam(5, $data[4], PDO::PARAM_STR);
$import->execute();
}
$i++;
}
/*$removal=$db->prepare("delete FROM adherence WHERE approvedtime = '0' OR notadhering IS NULL");
$removal->execute();*/
fclose($handle);
echo 'IMPORTED' ;
}
CSV file:
I have no clue, why my file is not being imported, and what is this random date. Please assist!

Connection is working. It is .MDB
Your fundamental issue is you do not specify the comma delimiter in the fgetcsv()
function. As a result, all the data pushed into one column, date[0]
and the Access ACE/JET engine unable to convert to date/time of the first column rendered all to zero which in unix time begins at 1/1/1970.
Also, consider using try/catch
to catch PDO exceptions.
try {
$import= $dbh->prepare("INSERT INTO adherence(
dateandtime,
lastname,
paidtime,
approvedtime,
notadhering) VALUES(
?,?,?,?,?)");
$i = 0;
while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE) {
if($i > 0) {
$data = str_replace('"', '', $data);
$import->bindParam(1, $data[0], PDO::PARAM_STR);
$import->bindParam(2, $data[1], PDO::PARAM_STR);
$import->bindParam(3, $data[2], PDO::PARAM_STR);
$import->bindParam(4, $data[3], PDO::PARAM_STR);
$import->bindParam(5, $data[4], PDO::PARAM_STR);
$import->execute();
}
$i++;
}
}
catch(PDOException $e) {
echo $e->getMessage()."\n";
}
As for dates, MS Access date/time field follows the current CPU's language clock such as MM/DD/YYYY
(US) or DD/MM/YYYY
(UK), etc. It does not follow the date/time format of other RDMS's of YYYY-MM-DD
or such variants. So there is no need to convert since your csv aligned already to Access' format. With that being said, you may receive a warning:
SQLSTATE[22018]: Invalid character value for cast specification: -3030
However, according to my tests, the database updated all rows correctly. Normally, you would concatenate the #
around date strings which I tried to no avail with your code but possibly in your bind parameters process, string types do not wrap ideally with the hashtags.
