I've found that installing MyODBC 2.5x from www.mysql.com will install a suitable ODBC system (odbc32.dll date is from 1995!). After that, you would need to "install" the driver for the database you want to connect to. This may be as easy as copying the dll to the system directory and doing some registry hacking. Or try running the driver setup program for your particular database. After that, do a "wine odbcad32.exe" to set up your DSN's, or look at the samples in the registry to do it manually. > Will such a thing be legal? Well, it is certainly using Microsoft software, but at least in the method I described it was software that installed itself willingly on my system. I have no idea what the legal challenges (if any) would look like. -- Paul McNett _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@winehq.com http://www.winehq.com/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
