MySQL (pronounced "my ess cue el") is an open source relational database management system (RDBMS) that uses Structured Query Language (SQL), the most popular language for adding, accessing, and processing data in a database. Because it is open source, anyone can download MySQL and tailor it to their needs in accordance with the general public license. MySQL is noted mainly for its speed, reliability, and flexibility. Most agree, however, that it works best when managing content and not executing transactions.

ODBC with MySQL

Assuming you mave MyODBC installed, you go to Administrative tools in Control panel and select Data Sources (ODBC). Then you add, say, a System DSN and specify the details of the server you want to connect to, the MySql database name and the user name to use for the connection. The server is accessible via DNS name or IP address and the MySQL server on it has permission set that will allow the specified user to connect.
