Transferring Data from PHP Script to ASP.Net Script

    Hey guys,

    My friend has a Lyric script that he wrote for me in ASP.NET and is currently working out the final bugs and glitches. I currently have a Lyric Script that I bought and it's in PHP/MySQL with close to 400,000 different songs. Is there a simple way to transfer the data to that script or what? I'm not a programmer and I haven't had an opportunity to ask him as he is extremely busy with his business. When he gets a few moments of free time, he works on the script for me and it's pretty much completed now.
    So I need to transfer those 400,000 songs from the PHP script to this ASP.Net script. (PHP script that I currently have is not hosted on any server).
    Any suggestions? I'm a newbie and don't exactly know how all this stuff works. Thanks in advance.

    If the lyrics are stored in a mySQL database, it is only a matter of connecting to the database from the ASP.NET code. Keep in mind that most PHP servers do not natively support ASP.NET, making it likely you will have to play around with some server stuff to get the ASP.NET scripts to run properly.

    Connecting to mySQL DBs with .NET

    Ok so use a form to send the data in the PHP/MySQL server and make the Asp .net script to receive it and store it i a database.

    Or
    Connect to the mysql database directly from ASP.net script
