Thanks OGINO San. You are right. I am using MySQL API. So, I need to connect thro' hostname, databaseName, etc. only and not thro' the ODBC DSN.

Are you using ODBC? Data Source Name(DSN) is an alias of the database in ODBC. So you must use DSN with ODBC API and cannot with 'mysql_real_connect' that is MySQL API. --- OGINO Tomonori @Osaka, Japan -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
