                                mssql_select_db

   (PHP 3, PHP 4 )
   mssql_select_db -- Select MS SQL database

Description

   bool mssql_select_db ( string database_name [, resource
   link_identifier])

   Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

   mssql_select_db() sets the current active database on the server
   that's associated with the specified link identifier. If no link
   identifier is specified, the last opened link is assumed. If no link
   is open, the function will try to establish a link as if
   mssql_connect() was called, and use it.

   Every subsequent call to mssql_query() will be made on the active
   database.

   In order to select a database containing a space or a hyphen ("-") you
   need to enclose the database name in brackets, like is shown in the
   example below:

   Example 1. mssql_select_db() example
   <?php
       $conn = mssql_connect('MYSQLSERVER', 'sa', 'password');
       mssql_select_db('[my data-base]', $conn);
   ?>

   See also: mssql_connect(), mssql_pconnect(), and mssql_query()
