I'm very new to this. This is the first time I'm using mysql and servlet. I might be doing a lot of mistakes. I realized that I should not use Microsoft Works Database. How can I actually create the database name, table and its field using mysql? In which directory should I put the database? Please explain. Hoping for a reply. I really hope this simple program can run today. Thank you. TEH

Anyway, if the database you're using is something like an Access database, you'll just need to use the correct driver and point the URL to your database file. Can't help you here coz i never tried that before (Access is like from another world to me). Perhaps you should try other mailing list, and not Tomcat's.
