Here is a good place to start: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/apis.html Specifically, this page describes the C API for connecting: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/mysql-real-connect.html The C++ API requires a license to view, so I cannot link to that. Anyway, if you look at the function signature, you will notice a parameter for the hostname. This is where you put the computer's IP address. I am sure the C++ interface has something similar. -- John Gaughan
