RE: MyODBC - but how?
Connecting to the tables in MySQL works fine. For example I can connect to the MySQL tables using MS Access. I would like to know if it is possible to connect to the tables of another database from MySQL. So instead of going from MS Access to MySQL I would go from MySQL to an AS400. Do I somehow use the command CONNECT [] to change the database? -Original Message- From: Scott Baker To: John Halladay; MySQL List (E-mail) Sent: 1/31/2001 2:09 PM Subject: Re: MyODBC - but how?

Re: MyODBC - but how?
No, mysql cannot connect to other database servers, it can't even connect to other mysql servers except through replication. John Halladay wrote: Connecting to the tables in MySQL works fine.
