ODBC?
Is there an ODBC driver for mySQL?
Here's what I'd like to do. Have two frontends, a web frontend using dbman and mySQL and a Windows front-end using MS access tying into the same data.

Access has the ability to link to dbs using an ODBC driver. Hence the question is there an ODBC driver for mySQL on the windows platform?

Thanks

I don't believe so for My SQL...but there is one, of course, for MS SQL.

Yes, have a look at:

http://www.mysql.com/...oads/api-myodbc.html

and assuming you can connect remotely (most isp's don't enable this by default), you can connect to your mysql server from your pc using Access.

Cheers,

Alex
