Dear all, can anyone knows how could i make my tables in MySQL talk to the application i have created in Delphi 6....??

I am really depressed as i am a dump on this one..please somebody help me out. ;(

thx so muchy!!!

Hi

Do you have an ODBC driver for MySQL installed? Perhaps that would be a good starting point. Once you have a driver it shouldn't be too difficult to open connections.

do u mean a MyODBC?? I was looking for it to install....

if i had that, what would i do next? thx ya kindness!

The ODBC driver will sit between your application and the database and allow you to query/manipulate the database with SQL. Once the driver is installed you have a number of ways that you can code it.

ADO is a good route to go, as it involves very little code. You probably have some help files for ADO with Delphi (I don't really remember, it's a long time since I used Delphi).

thx so much, just the delphi 6 personal ed. doesnt support
lots of essential functions, no ADO, BDE, no database desktop,
nothing i could think about connecting, i will try your .rar,
thx 4 the source, but i might struggle of how am i gonna use it,
i am a real dump on programming, happy to meet y'all genius
here man!

No worries mate.

Y'all makes you sound like you're from here in North Carolina, as all the natives say that here.

Hope you have some luck with that thing. Keep an eye on the forum as I'll ask a couple of people and see if there's an alternative.
