Jon:
On the MYSQL.com site there are BINARY (executable, ready to be installed)
and SOURCE CODE packages. The source code requires compilation. You will
need to download the BINARIES for Windows 98/NT/2K,
http://www.mysql.com/Downloads/MySQL-3.23/mysql-3.23.35a-win.zip
Also, these are the links for the MySQL GUI,
http://www.mysql.com/Downloads/mysqlgui/mysqlgui-win32-static-1.7.4-2.zip
and for the MyODBC,
http://www.mysql.com/Downloads/MyODBC/myodbc-2.50.36-nt.zip
Hope that helps,

Subject: RE: mySQL for Windows
being fairly new to all of this, I have a couple questions:
I have been to the mySQL site, and observed that the downloads must be
compiled, and to do that one must obtain another program...etc etc...
having NEVER done this sort of thing before (open source that is)...any tips
or suggestions/pitfalls?
I will/would like to run it on NT4....if possible.
any thoughts?
experiences?
thanks
Jon

I have been using MySQL with CF (for both Linux and Win2K) and it's been
working great for me so far. Put aside the limitations of MySQL (not
completely relational DB, no SELECT in SELECT statements, etc.) it seems
that it's a reliable enough alternative (depending on your needs of course)
to the more expensive SQL Server, Oracle, etc.

Just downloaded and installed mySQL, myODBC and myGUI under Windows 2000 AS.
All seems to work fine.
Has anyone used CF with mySQL? Any comments or issues before I look at it
further?
Thanks.
Adrian Cooper.
