PHP MySQL database from MS Access

I'm developing a php website that is only accessible from a company network. I've been using MySQL to develop my databases, but I need pertinent information that is located in a MS Access database (also located on the network).

The problem is that this MS Access database updates itself every 6 hours - so I will need to:

(1) Make a connection from my php site to the MS Access database located on the network.

(2) Have it periodically update itself.

I have absolutely no clue where to start. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

To have it periodically update itself, you may need to have a service do this. A webpage (running php) will only run when a user goes to that webpage.
