Hi,

I'm completely new to MySQL and some of its concepts, therefore, these questions may be very basic.

To connect to another database format I need the ODBC driver for that other format - right?

I've built a repair job entry database on my Palm with HanDBase 3.0. I also got the HanDBase ODBC Driver v3.0. I tried to connect my desktop database program Paradox to it but there are some issues which seem to be unsolvable. I tried to connect to the .pdb (HanDBase) tables with Excel - that worked. Presumably, this indicates that the HanDBase ODBC driver is doing its job.

What I would like to do is to copy the .pdb tables into MySQL tables and then work with these MySQL tables on the desktop. I searched hi and lo but all the connection related info seems to be about other database programs connecting to MySQL but I could not find any info about how MySQL connects to other database formats.

Thanks for any help with this.

Elmar
