If I recall well MyODBC is used when you want to access ODBC compliant databases on a Linux based computer, however if you want to acces mySQL from ASP means that you are programming on a Windows based computer, and therefore you have ODBC client access built-in. What you need to do is to create a System Data Source Name using (at least when I did it) the Sybase driver.

I would suggest doing google searches on MyODBC and ASP in the same search, or adapt some code from my site www.vbmysql.com, and look in the MyODBC FAQ for examples. Also subscribe to the MyODBC list at lists.mysql.com Here's a sample linked to from the MyODBC FAQ: http://www.devarticles.com/art/1/50 Regards, Mike Hillyer www.vbmysql.com > -----Original Message----- > From: Jorge Cornejo [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, June 20, 2003 1:44 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Connecting ASP > > > Hi, I'm hosting a website in a Linux server.
