Hi,

We are currently running a early version of MySQL and are looking to upgrade
to the latest version 5.  However, we have a number of external applications
which use the MySQL Connector/ODBC 3.51.  What are the differences between
ODBC 3.51 and ODBC 5.1.  For example do I need to use ODBC 5.1 if we upgrade
our database to version 5 or can I continue using ODBC 3.51.

I carried out some limited tests and found that ODBC 3.51 worked fine with
MySQL database version 5.  However, if I use ODBC 5.1 with MySQL version 5 I
have a very strange problem as documented here :
http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=44935.  Basically all my queries fail to
return any string/varchar values.

Thanks for any help.

Regards,
Neil
