I'd probably use an associative array.... I'm in perl mode right now,
and my PHP is rusty, so forgive me for not attempting a code sample. But
that should point you in the right direction, anyhow.

But I'll also toss in another idea.... Have you considered setting up an
ODBC connection to your MySQL server, and just importing the data into
Excel by that route?
