Thx for the quick response... Here's my connection parameters. I always get invalid parameter.
DRIVER={MySQL}; USER NAME=myusername; PASSWORD=mypassword; SERVER=10.10.10.45; DATABASE NAME=DatabaseName; PORT=3306; I am pretty sure of the driver name since "MySQL" is the exact string Windows98 ODBC manager shows me. I put the port param there just in case but I think 3306 is the default port number and therefore is not necessary. Could it be possible it is because I did not set any options?
