Hello John,
There is a tute of sorts at:
http://terra.tafe.tas.edu.au/~beechd/rdb/rdbd_mysql_intro.html
which will help if you have problems with the acces/privilege model.
Also: Have you installed an ODBC driver (MyODBC) correctly? and
set up a DSN?
It is most likely that the problem is an access issue and can be solved by
using GRANT eg
grant select on stusys.* to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' identified by 'joe'
