I have sent this very same question to a couple of MySQL.com lists but
without response so far. I was slightly hoping that someone might have
come across this problem here seeing as it is CF5 which I am trying to
get to work with it. I don't know whether it is a configuration issue
or a bug or what.
At the very least it would be nice to know which is the most recent
version of MySQL / MyODBC which works correctly with CF5 on Win2k
MySQL claim that a -gamma version is virtually 'production' & 'only a
matter of weeks from being the GA version' and it would be nice to be
able to use 4.1 as it supports features like UNION statements &
subqueries which are both endemic to my app as it is written (& working)
with Access at the moment.
Somewhat in desperation I have started a separate thread on this list:
'Now I'm in a fix. Which DB?'
