Dear All,
I am desperately trying to get the lowdown on MySQL.
I have just completed the first phase of a rather large and complex
website and was all geared up to publish it when the Hosting Service
informed me that they do not support Access, but I have to use MySQL
instead.
I use two Access 97 databases, PWS, Frontpage 98 and ASP for the
website. I established the DSN's as Microsoft Access Drivers using the
32-bit ODBC that comes with Windows 98. Everything works absolutely fine
on my development system.
I understand that I can link my Access databases to the MySQL database
that the Hosting Service will set up at my request. I have downloaded
the relevant ODBC drivers, but do not know into which folder I should
install them. Nor do I know how to do the linking. The documentation is
not very clear and I don't seem to be able to find what I need to know.
Finally, the ASP question! I presume I will have to change the DSN's I
have coded in my ASP pages. Where will I get the correct name from?
I'm really at sea with this, as I have never encountered this situation
before, and ANY help would be much appreciated.
Thank you
Pat
