how to connect vb with mysql?
761) Download the free ODBC Driver from MySQL website (link below).
2) Get the connection string from the other link below. I'm assuming you know ADO how to create connection objects.
3) You might be running MySQL on your machine, or on a remote server. If running on a remote server, you might have to go to CPanel, and authorize your remote IPAddress.
4) Consider upgrading to VB.NET, but you still need the same info above.
