Subject: Connecting to MySQL through CF 5 on Windows??

Is it possible to connect CF 5 (installed on a Windows 2000 Server) to a
MySQL database?If so, how would I do it?MySQL doesn't show up in the
drop-down list for databases you can choose from on the windows install
of CF 5 like it does on the Linux install.Does that mean it's not
supported?

instructions and pass them along.If anyone could give me a
step-by-step that'd be great!

All I've done before is download the myODBC connector
(http://www.mysql.com/downloads/api-myodbc-3.51.html) install it and then
access the CF admin and mySQL appears in the list of databases.

Not quite

Install the myODBC drivers, then in Windows you'll need to add the 
datasource name through the Windows ODBC Manager control panel, as mySQL 
only shows up in the database type list in CF admin on *nix boxes.

Once you've added the DSN through the control panel the data source will 
appear in the database section of CF administrator.

Must be different on CFMX then. I've only installed the myODBC connector but
yet when I go to the cfadministrator and choose driver, it's listed in
there, mySQL.

CFMX uses JDBC, and I suspect that a mySQL JDBC connector ships with it.

Yeah, CFMX kindly includes the driver in the listings whatever your OS, 
unlike CF5

Have contemplated adjusting the cf administrator on CF5 to allow adding 
mySQL datasourceBut that would require naughty bits of software 
and messing with allaire code :D
