There's an ODBC driver for MySQL. I've had folks using it for things like Crystal
Reports and it works OK. That is, I haven't seen any problems in the driver itself.
However, I remember both Crystal Reports and MS Access having problems with the size
of the intergers returned from MySQL. My guess from there (since I don't program
outside of *NIX) would be something like C++ (MS or Borland are two big names that
come to mind), or even MS Visual Basic.

You remember what "BASIC" stands for, right? "Beginner"
