Also, here is some potentially useful Delphi code that sets up both an ODBC entry and a BDE entry for Connector/ODBC. The BDE entry requires a BDE Alias Editor that is free at a Delphi Super Page near you. (Thanks to Bryan Brunton<bryan@flesherfab.com>for this):

fReg: = TRegistry.Create;fReg。OpenKey(“\ Software \ ODBC\ODBC.INI\DocumentsFab', True); fReg.WriteString('Database', 'Documents'); fReg.WriteString('Description', ' '); fReg.WriteString('Driver', 'C:\WINNT\System32\myodbc.dll'); fReg.WriteString('Flag', '1'); fReg.WriteString('Password', ''); fReg.WriteString('Port', ' '); fReg.WriteString('Server', 'xmark'); fReg.WriteString('User', 'winuser'); fReg.OpenKey('\Software\ODBC\ODBC.INI\ODBC Data Sources', True); fReg.WriteString('DocumentsFab', 'MySQL'); fReg.CloseKey; fReg.Free; Memo1.Lines.Add('DATABASE NAME='); Memo1.Lines.Add('USER NAME='); Memo1.Lines.Add('ODBC DSN=DocumentsFab'); Memo1.Lines.Add('OPEN MODE=READ/WRITE'); Memo1.Lines.Add('BATCH COUNT=200'); Memo1.Lines.Add('LANGDRIVER='); Memo1.Lines.Add('MAX ROWS=-1'); Memo1.Lines.Add('SCHEMA CACHE DIR='); Memo1.Lines.Add('SCHEMA CACHE SIZE=8'); Memo1.Lines.Add('SCHEMA CACHE TIME=-1'); Memo1.Lines.Add('SQLPASSTHRU MODE=SHARED AUTOCOMMIT'); Memo1.Lines.Add('SQLQRYMODE='); Memo1.Lines.Add('ENABLE SCHEMA CACHE=FALSE'); Memo1.Lines.Add('ENABLE BCD=FALSE'); Memo1.Lines.Add('ROWSET SIZE=20'); Memo1.Lines.Add('BLOBS TO CACHE=64'); Memo1.Lines.Add('BLOB SIZE=32'); AliasEditor.Add('DocumentsFab','MySQL',Memo1.Lines);
