It depends on what you mean by "without using ODBC".
You CAN connect to a MySQL database without a DSN name, you can just declare
an IP address and a DB name, but I'm pretty sure that this method still uses
the MySQL ODBC driver and it must be installed on the server.
You CAN NOT, as far as I know, connect to a MySQL database, through ASP (or
any other program, I believe), without having at least the MyODBC driver
installed on the server.

I wrote a case study for ASPToday on ASP and MySQL integration. You can view
the synopsis and the article by going to:

Good Luck,
