So, when I do this the window says "Simple MySQL Connection->Create a connection to a MySQL Database". At this point you plug in details for your database connection...
Host URL: The IP address or hostname of your MySQL Database (If it's on your local machine use localhost or 127.0.0.1 or your local machines IP address). Database Name: The database you want to connect to (You will select a table later). User Name: The User Name you use to connect to the database above. Password: The Password you use to connect to the database above. You should then click the "Test Connection" button to see if Flex can connect to the database with the parameters you have entered.
