PHP Page creation software?

    I am slowly leaving behind my frontpage 2000 website to replace it with a site built within WP. Currently, there are over 200 asp pages on my existing site that have been built by the FP database wizared, using my Access 2000 database. I think I understand that I will have to recreate much of the tables and queries using .php and msql. Is there a program out there that anyone can recommend that acts as a WYSIWYG .php builder, where it easily creates a .php page that draws from tables and queries (or builds queries/formulas) itself? As I have only known Access interms of databases, I am unfamiliar with the process of how fields from table and queries, including formula fields within queries, are able to be displayed within WP.

    Thanks,

    Ron

    Have you looked at this? Importing Content to WP.

    But you probably also want to consider whether the coding of your existing site is worth preserving/copying — if it’s outdated or full of validation errors, that’s likely to be a problem…

    Thanks.

    Actually, I am not concerned about having to re-create standard .htm pages (or with whatever format is best-suited today). Those are primarily pictures, text and flash files and need to be updated anyway.

    However, I am terribly concerned about what do do about re-creating a system within WP that replaces the way I use my Access database and .asp pages (which are created in Frontpage) that are used to update and display fields from the many tables and queries within my Access database. I understand that queries are not created within mysql itself but through .php pages (is this right?) that contain the formulas. I am looking for some sort of software or wizard program that will be able to do this for me easily by creating the necessary pages (if there is such a thing) similar to the way the Frontpage Database Wizard does.
