Hi Michael, We are using standard classic ASP code like :
*Function OpenConnection() OpenConnection = "DSN=MyDSN_SSL" End Function DSNTemp = OpenConnection() Set Conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") Set RecordsetTest = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.RecordSet") response.write Now() & " connecting... <BR> Connected at : " Conn.Open DSNTemp response.write Now() if Conn.errors.count = 0 then response.write " - Connection Successful!" else response.write " - ERROR: Couldn't connect to database" end if* * RecordsetTest.open "SELECT CONNECTION_ID() As MySQLConnectionID" ,Conn 'query database for data if not RecordsetTest.eof then response.write "<br>" & RecordsetTest.fields("MySQLConnectionID").value & "<br>" end if RecordsetTest.close set RecordsetTest = nothing* ** * Conn.close set Conn = nothing* But my question regarding the CONNECTION_ID is why we are connecting using the same ID from two different computers. I'm using a MySQL ODBC 5.1 Driver connection.
