You have to make sure that php loads that module, if it does not then you cannot connect to the database...
If you can get the dbx module to load you might be able to use the dbx mssql connection. However, I am not 100% sure if that will work, because it will probably use the php_mssql.dll to access the database. Try it and see...

I want to be able to access an MS SQL Server, but I don't want to install SQL Server on the web server. What files are needed in order to do this? Normally, I have no problem with this because I typically have MS SQL Server installed on the web server. The only file I know of to put in the system32 root is ntwdblib.dll. But are there any others? (Aside from enabling the php_mssql.dll). I still get the unable to load php_mssql.dll even though the file exists and the extension_dir path is set to where I keep this extension. This works in all cases where I have the SQL Server running on the same machine as PHP/Apache, etc. So I am guess I am just missing some other files for this to work. ANyone encounter this scenario and realized how to resolve this? Any help or direction is appreciated!
