First learn about ADO.
Set a reference to ADODB in your VB project
Create a Connection object and set it's ConnectionString to something like "DRIVER={MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver};DESC=;" & _
"DATABASE=mfg;SERVER=192.168.100.20;" & _
"UID=UserName;PASSWORD=PassWord;PORT=;OPTION=0;STMT=;"

Download and install the ODBC driver for MySQL from the website.

Once connected to the database work with it as you would with any other database (doesn't support Transactions yet...)

Good Luck!

Send a message via ICQ to Onslaught
Look for Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.x Library

ADO = ActiveX Data Objects

Also, please do not double post, I have deleted your doubled thread, but in the future please delete a thread if you create two like this. I would also suggest that you search this forum for connections to mysql and you read the "How to Post a Question" sticky at the top of this forum for more information on how to post a question.
