CF 7 comes with a MySQL 3.1 driver....if you're using 4.1, there is a different authentication mechanism so username/passwords don't fly....just use without the user/pass. You can also dload the newer JDBC driver for 4.x and up at mysql.org or .com or wherever the home of that miserable excuse for a database is (no I'm not jaded at all...hehe) ;-) HTH Cheers Bryan Stevenson B.Comm.
