I have tried to connect MySQL Database into COBOL.

Upto my knowledge there is no direct way to link MyODBC with the COBOL.

Is any one can suggest me the possibilities of doing such thing....

thanks

Can you use ODBC?

thanks bstjean for considering my mail.

I thing u mean to ODBC is what I mentioned as myODBC.

I have downloaded the ODBC driver provided by MYSQL from their website they call it as MyODBC 2.50.

Thru which I have created Data Source Name (DSN) for the Database i have it in a server. It will provide the follwing details;

DSN Name, UserId, Password.

But to connect to COBOL we may need (i thing) additional informations as;
Which server it will be accessed from? (my server)
What protocol used for trasaction? (we may use HTTP)
What are all the environmental settings to indicate it is MySQL?

I want to know How we can give these details to COBOL ?

if any one suggest for these details it'll be very help full for me...

apa.

What actually my requsition is;

I have used CA Realia II workbench environment for testing my application, currently it is linked to DB2 Database. I have to make relink to points to MySQL database.

I have created DSN for the MySQL database in remote server. I have to notify COBOL to establish connection via this DSN to MySQL Database.

Is any one consider this issue and suggest me...

Thanks
