Nelson, It sounds like you are trying to connect to MySQL via ADO using a connection string. ADO connection in that manner requires an OLE-DB driver for the database platform if you wish to avoid using an ODBC DSN. I don't think that there's an OLE-DB (at least not a free one) for MySQL yet. Therefore, you will have to use a DSN. Regards, -- Barry C.
