Hi, Thank you for your reply. After establishing a connection to the Database using ODBC API, can we use the mysql API's like "mysql_query()" instead of using MyODBC API's.
Thanks in Advance.

See: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/ODBC_Connector.html When you call mysql_real_connect you use mysqlclient library, which connects to server directly (you don't need to configure ODBC). To connect using DSN, you should use ODBC API. ODBC and MySQL are completly different things. MySQL - database system, and ODBC is an interface to interact with different databases.
