I think that all depends on the nature of your application. If you must have
a central database and your VB program acts as a client, then you would only
have to include the ODBC driver. If each copy of your program can act
independently of each other, in other words, if its strictly a desktop
application, then yes, you would have to include a complete copy of MySQL.

Well, that's a question that I have wrestled with also. There was a recent
post (on 4/19/01) by one of the MySQL developers (Miguel Angel Solorzano)
that addresses this issue, I would search in the archives for it. I haven't
tried it just yet, but it does seem like a possible solution.
Good Luck,
Dennis
