NOTE: I replied off-list
First note: I like the e-mail address. Really great.
Secondly: The best VB/DLL documentation you could find MIGHT be a project
that has done what you want. If you download the source classes for the
MyVbQl VB API <http://www.icarz.com/mysql/index.html> it will tell you a lot
about interfacing with the DLL. Also: I would assume that reading the
documentation to the C API would be a good place to start as well, as that
details the interface to the libmysql.dll (on windows) and libmysql.so (on
*nix systems).
Third: You've seen a few? I've only managed to find one. At least only one
free one. What are the others you've found?
Fourth: When you write it, could you be careful to write it so it could be
used in MS Access as well? I don't know many specifics, but I do know Access
97 doesn't support Enum's. Access 2000 does, so if you want to do that, I'll
just convince my boss to upgrade. We're due anyway.
Fifth: I don't have extensinve experience with VB, but have done quite a bit
of Access programming, and would like to help with this if I could.
So, let me know what you turn up. I'll look as well.
