Brian,
We're using ColdFusion 5 on LINUX and a MySQL database server. It's
wicked. We had previously been using Access and NT. Everything is better
on MySQL except GUI access to your data, though you can pick up freeware
apps to do this. It seems to be faster, cleaner, less likely to freeze up
on you. We're using MyODBC for the driver. Works good. We really like
it.

I'm new to this list, so far it's great.
We run NT4, WebSitePro, Cold Fusion 5, and so far all our customer data
bases are in Microsoft Access. We have 20 - 30 customers use MS Access
database with CF on our Server.
We have not used MySQL as of yet.
I have a potential customer that has a small amount of data (500 - 600
records) in a MySQL database.
How hard is it to get MySQL working on NT?
How hard is it to get CF working with MySQL? I can't seem to find
anything
on the CF website about this.
Is it possible to convert a MySQL database to MS Access? Would I want to
do
this?
Is MySQL any better than MS Access?
Brian
