You are correct ... you are not clear.

You cannot 'open a database' ... any database ... without some sort server. 
Delphi has a built-in server of sorts. MySQL can be run standalone so it 
only serves the local machine. The point is, something, somewhere has to 
serve the database. It can be anything from a 'server' running on your 
notebook to a 'server' running on a big iron somewhere ... but NO database 
is functional without a 'server'.

should be an easy task to open a database and edit or create a new one
should not need a server running for that. I do it all the time with Delphi
maybe im not being clear
I trien all the win32 programs listed on the mysql site and they all try to
connect
to the unit server.
