Or you could use the MySQL client libraries directly: http://www.mysql.com/documentation/mysql/bychapter/manual_Clients.html#Clients The tradeoff is essentially that the ODBC library will let you change database backends (eg to PostGreSQL etc) easily later. The MySQL client library probably has more features (because it can assume it's got direct access to a MySQL server - the ODBC libraries probably constrain you to features common to most databases).
