Hello,
I've installed the ODBC connector for MySQL and can go into Access and
manually link to the MySQL tables. Everything works fine this way.
But rather than go into the Windows Data Source Adminstrator on each
user's computer, how would you code an MS Access front end to connect
to MySQL tables at startup? Where would you put the code and how
would you call it when the Access database is opened?
Thanks for your help!

An ODBC datasource (DSN) can be created by adding the right entries to
the registry. Just run regedit.exe and search for one by name. You can
export the key, and then import it using a command line: regedit.exe
your.reg
Reattach code is a FAQ. You should have no problem finding
suggestions. Keyword: RefreshLink

What I do is on my development system I create the ODBC datasource and all
table links.
Then in the code that executes at startup I re/create the ODBC datasource
dim cTxt As String
cTxt = "Description=bu ilding photos"
cTxt = cTxt & Chr(13) & "Database=PHOTO S"
cTxt = cTxt & Chr(13) & "Server=192.111 .111.11"
DBEngine.Regist erDatabase "BldgPhotos ", "SQL Server", True, cTxt

Thanks DFS. That's exactly what I'm looking to do. Just one
question. Where do I find the "code that executes at startup" so that
I add the ODBC datasource code?

Create a Public Function (in a module) that gets called from a macro named
'autoexec'.

I am not able to connect to the mysql DB if I am not the root user. I
have already found identified an issue:
* mysql.sock is NOT located in /tmp
So, to get around it I created a sym link to the actual location
(/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock). This file, and the sym link, are both
owned by root but they have full permission for all user. But the
parent directories are ONLY READ and EXECUTABLE for non root users.

I am trying to design a program that will use data from a MySQL database.
Currently all the data is being used with PHP scripts from a website. I am
also trying to build a software solution that can use the same data. I have
gone through all the data connectors in Visual Basic.net and none of them
have the options for connecting to MySQL. Does anybody know how I would go
about doing this? Thanks in advance!

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
