PHP vs Access on Intranet

Hi there i would just like to get some opinion in this matter.... i am making a database program for a medical center.... but which is better??.... PHP or access... it is running on an local intranet on a Win NT Server.... i am scared of the point if access has a lockout when one user has the database opened...... will this affect it in anyway when using the database in the intranet environment???

And another is the fact that i will have to print custom sizes for prescription is there any recommendations to what program or script will work well with PHP..... i have a copy FPDF already just haven't had the time to play with it yet....

At this moment i am leaning more towards PHP and mySQL unless someone says otherwise..... thanx for your time and comments to this....

PHP is a programming language, not a database. It's usually used in conjunction with MySQL, which IS a database. You really shouldn't use Access if you're talking about having much more than a couple of users.

sorry abt the errors but thanx for your feedback ishnid...... well PHP will be used for the interface and mySQL used for the database..... will this work well enough???.... and has there been any major known problems with PHP & mySQL used within the Win NT Server i know that it's best used on a UNIX box.....
