If you write a Web service wrapper around the database, yes. If you want to use a MySQL client library on the device, there are three areas of concern I can think of off the top of my head this early in the morning: 1. JDBC is not built into Android 2. Even if it were, I am not certain that it or the MySQL driver use the subset of Java that Android offers 3. Even if that all worked, JDBC (and possibly the MySQL driver) targets an environment where there is quick, near-guaranteed access from the client to the database; an Android client has slower, sporadic access to the database -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development -- coming in June 2008! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
