Do I qualify here? Our webhost allows you to setup hostnames to access your MySQL database. ie, I access my database through 'sql.fbagroup.co.uk' on the MySQL default port and login with my credentials - because the databases are on dedicated machines. Does this sound right?
I'd be very intersted in such an application, Alex! Anything that would make the administration of a MySQL database more user-friendly (or Windos-friendly, as it's what people seem accustomed to) I would welcome with open arms. At the moment, I get a few of my colleagues (who need to enter data) to enter the data into an Access database as that is what they're happy with before I export it to MySQL to work with my applications. I think this could well be the answer?!
Cheers
