thanks to both of you, that did the trick.

Dear listers,
I am trying to get shapefiles in and out of a mySQL database using OGR.
I found some example commands for importing and succeeded in doing this.
But getting the syntax together to get a spatial dataset out of mySQL db
seems to be over my head.
Can anybody supply an example command to convert from mySQL to shape? Or
is it just not possible to export geodata from mySQL into shapefiles
using OGR?
The MapServer project includes some good examples of using the ogrinfo
utility on mySQL databases:
http://www.mapserver.org/input/vector/mysql.html#test-connection-with-ogrinfo
I would start there, then execute the commands that Frank mentions.
