[kandula]

Please tell me how to connect to mysql

Hi Kandula,

Since elements (links, data etc) on web page sometime are floating, so we need to select from database.

Here I have made a paragraph of statement for DB connection and data selecting, and I have successfully connected with WEBDEV database. FYI.



****************************************************************************************

Code:

Set Conn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection" )

str="DRIVER={MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver};SERVER=webdev;DATABASE=intranet;user id=root ; password=xxxxx"

Conn.open str

Set Rs = CreateObject ("ADODB.Recordset" )

sql = "select * from `user`;"

Rs.open sql,conn,1,3

If (not Rs.eof) then

Rs.MoveFirst

' show the first piece of record from user table'

MsgBox Rs(0)

MsgBox Rs(1)

MsgBox Rs(2)

MsgBox Rs(3)

MsgBox Rs(4)

MsgBox Rs(5)

MsgBox Rs(6)

end if

Rs.close

Set Rs = Nothing

Conn.close

Set Conn = Nothing
