Tutorial: Using MYODBC with MySQL (Windows)

Last Updated: June 17, 2003

If you are trying to create a MySQL database that need to be connected by an MYODBC connection...here is the procedure

First create the MySQL Database assign a user and password to it.
Then in ODBC select MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver.
Give the DSN a name
For server it would be mysql.jodohost.com
Database: is the name of the database created in step 1
UID: is the user created in step 1
Password: is the password setup in step 1
The last 2 option you can leave alone.
That should do it.

I was going to ask a question about this.
